We are looking for an experienced Financial Fraud Investigator that sits within the Housing Benefit / Financial Assessment structure. The main purpose of the role is to work as part of a new multidisciplinary team, and assist with reviewing our existing and potential new caseload of supported (exempt) accommodation tenants and providers. The Council offers flexible hybrid working arrangements. The purpose of the team will be to assess the need for and provision of care, support, and supervision from a housing duty perspective. Challenging tenant eligibility for supported housing and provider eligibility under Housing Benefit regulations will be the main focus, as well as reducing the elements that make up the eligible rent. As the Counter Fraud Investigator, your main focus will be on investigating providers (i.e. are they not-for-profit, are there links to other providers, do they provide the required level of care, support and supervision, what evidence do we have, how are the Directors linked to the company and other companies, contrived tenancies, and potential DWP benefits, council tax support and council tax fraud.) Experience and knowledge of housing fraud is desirable.
