Her progression through the organisation is testament to the huge level of initiative she takes in both service delivery and self-development.
As one of nine Housing Managers within BHC’s Operations Team, Chantel is responsible for the daily tenancy and property management within her allocated portfolio. Chantel’s friendly and open style makes her an incredibly important part of the Housing Management team and the organisation overall.
While working in the Allocations Team, Chantel visited her first BHC property in Kangaroo Point. Newly developed in 2012, BHC’s Century Apartments was one of BHC’s first mixed tenure properties – combining residents from all walks of life together in one community. That initial visit would come full circle, as Chantel now manages the property she first encountered early in her career.
In 2019, in recognition of her contributions across the organisation, her tenants’ success in their tenancies and the effective functioning of BHC’s affordable housing portfolio overall, Chantel was nominated for the PowerHousing Awards Rising Star Category.
“During my tenure at BHC, I have grown personally and professionally in my varied roles. Even though I didn’t win, being nominated by the organisation was a great honour and I’m thankful for being recognised.”
Having come to housing management from administrative roles, Chantel has a deep understanding of the tenant journey and the importance of achieving positive outcomes at each part of a tenant’s interaction with BHC.
“Working at BHC has given me the opportunity to give back. I lived in social housing as a child and I don’t know what my life would have been like if my family didn’t have access to affordable accommodation.”
