Following a review of our Housing services we have embarked on an ambitious Housing Improvement and Transformation journey. As part of this we have taken the approach to reimagine our Property directorate bringing together all areas relating to property, leading to better collaboration, synergy and customer centric service provision.

With a stock of just over 10,000 properties, and an ambition to deliver exemplar services across Responsive Repairs, Voids, Capital Investment, Strategic Asset Management and the decarbonisation of our social housing stock data is key.

We are in the closing stages of updating our stock condition survey information and already have a performance tool in place that takes this data and plots the performance of our social housing stock, helping us to make long term strategic decisions.

We are seeking an exceptional individual with significant experience of managing a Housing Asset database, with the technical prowess to advise on key areas including investment decisions and business planning. You should have a proven track record of managing procurement and contract management processes, compiling Asset Management Strategies linked to data combined with excellent horizon scanning abilities to ensure current, emerging and future legislation is considered and be able to demonstrate linking data into financial business planning.

This key role reports into the Head of Asset Management and is front and centre of our ambitious plans. The ability to build strong and meaningful relationships with colleagues and contractors is required as well as tact, diplomacy and the ability to negotiate.
