You'll lead on the management of our ALMO contract, ensuring it delivers high quality services and value for money to around 16,000 homes in our borough (a mix of both tenancies and leaseholds). You'll bring considerable professional experience and technical expertise to the role, enhanced by strong financial management skills.Whether your background is in a local authority, RSL or other setting, you'll be a skilled and able influencer, comfortable operating and negotiating at Board level. You should be able to show evidence of proactive engagement with tenants and leaseholders, and that you have delivered sustainable improvement in organisations through effective performance management of resources, both internal and external.
