Community Housing is a community based social housing provider with around 6,000 homes, based in the Wyre Forest District of Worcestershire.

Our aim is “to provide affordable, quality homes and deliver great services in safe communities” and our ambition is to be a great landlord.

We know that we have a way to go to achieve this, so we are looking for Board Members with the right skills and experience to help us.

We have an exciting Corporate Plan that sets ambitious targets around the following themes:

* Looking Out for Customers
* Looking after Homes and Neighbourhoods
* Looking Out for Colleagues
* Looking after our Company

Our Board Members play a central role in overseeing our governance and ensuring that, as we pursue our ambitions, we don’t underestimate important issues or fail to meet the expectations of customers, our regulators, funding bodies and other key stakeholders.

We are looking for candidates who have an interest in social housing even though they may not have experience in it. Based on our assessment of current and future skills gaps we are particularly keen to hear from those with expertise in one of the following disciplines:

* Digital transformation, particularly customer engagement and / or digital marketing
* Change Management and Project Delivery
* Cyber Security
* Governance/Internal Audit/Risk Management.

We have a programme of work focusing on Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging to help us improve diversity on the Board, so as part of our quest to be more representative of our communities, we particularly encourage applications from BAME candidates. However, we want to attract a wide range of applicants so even if you do not fit the above profile, if you are interested in our work we would be very pleased to hear from you.

To find out more, go to www.jointhetchgteam.co.uk or if you would like to discuss the opportunity further, please call Anne Elliott on 07875 762029. 

The closing date for applications is noon on 30 April 2024.
