About the role

As a Technical Officer, you’ll manage a varied caseload of home adaptations—from minor works such as stairlifts, to larger, life-changing projects involving multiple areas within a home. You’ll work closely with clients, Occupational Therapists, contractors, and partners to ensure high-quality outcomes.

You’ll be involved from start to finish—visiting clients at home to design an adaptation from Occupational Health recommendations to suit their needs, creating detailed schedules of works, and overseeing projects through to completion.

What you’ll be doing

• Visiting clients in their homes to understand their needs and design a suitable adaptation based on Occupational Therapy recommendations.
• Taking accurate measurements, drawing detailed floorplans and creating a schedule of work adhering to strict grant funding requirements.
• Visiting clients and giving advice on home improvements to ensure their home is warm and safe.
• Managing contractors and overseeing works on site where required.
• Ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time, and to a high standard.
• Working closely with Occupational Therapists and Powys County Council throughout the grants process.
• Keeping accurate records and managing your own caseload and time effectively
• Building strong relationships with colleagues and partner organisations to ensure the best client outcomes.

• Confident managing projects and contractors
• Organised and able to manage a varied workload
• A strong communicator who can work with a wide range of people
• Passionate about improving people’s homes and quality of life
• Experience of working with adaptations, grants, or vulnerable clients would be a real advantage—but not essential.
