The Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust (JRHT) is a provider of housing and care, and we manage around 2,500 homes across York, North Yorkshire, and parts of the Northeast. Together with our parent company The Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF), the charity that strives to inspire the delivery of social change, we form the JRF-JRHT Group with a proud history and heritage stretching back more than 100 years.

The organisation is also going through change and has recently refocussed its core objectives and delivered significant work on the new consumer standards. To continue this transformation, they are now seeking a Director of Communities who will play a pivotal role in guiding, influencing, and facilitating this journey.

The Director of Communities will report to the JRHT Executive Director and will be accountable for leading the development and delivery of high quality, responsive and resident focused services. Whilst this could be your first Director role, you will bring senior leadership experience, with a focus on people. You will also be a role model for the organisation and how we do things to support the delivery of excellent services to our customers.

With the addition of three new Directors in Assets, Care and Finance in the last year, you will be joining a newly established team, making this an exciting opportunity.

JRHT aims to deliver high quality, continuously improving services. This includes providing inclusive and welcoming services and by being an inclusive organisation. We particularly want to welcome applications from a diverse range of people. This includes those who are currently underrepresented in the organisation including disabled people and people from Black and minoritised ethnic groups.

If you wish to join an organisation that allows you to play a part in supporting the positive impact on peoples lives every day, then please contact Kelly Shaw at kelly.shaw@campbelltickell.com to arrange a conversation.
