This senior leadership role sits on the Executive Team and oversees three key areas – Finance, IT, and People & Culture. The successful candidate will bring strategic direction, professional assurance, and a supportive leadership style that helps the teams continue to grow and perform at their best.

• Provide oversight of IT systems, security and digital development.
• Maintain strong governance and risk management across all areas.
• Lead and develop a high‑performing multidisciplinary team, encouraging collaboration and trust.

What We’re Looking For

• Qualified accountant (CIPFA, ACCA or equivalent) with senior leadership experience.
• Background in social housing or a closely related not-for-profit or public sector organisation.
• Strong financial management and treasury experience, including long‑term business planning.
• Experience working with Boards or Committees and presenting financial information clearly.
• Proven leadership skills – able to support, develop and inspire teams.
• Experience across HR, OD, and IT leadership.
• Familiarity with BRIXX or similar financial modelling tools.
• Understanding of housing regulation and governance frameworks.

The Person

• A calm, credible and approachable leader who builds trust quickly.
• Understands the values and purpose of the third sector.
• Strong communicator, able to engage financial and non‑financial audiences alike.
• Pragmatic and proactive, comfortable being both strategic and hands‑on.
• Confident leading through change and maintaining team stability.

Working Arrangements

• Hybrid and flexible working available – typically two office days per week, though open to discussion.
• Condensed hours and alternative working patterns considered.
• Suitable for an experienced Director or a Head of Finance looking to step up to executive level.
