Peer reviewing financial appraisals and project reports as required and providing recommendations to ensure an approval is achieved first time.
  • Ensure a robust sign-off process is followed in line with agreed governance policies, operating within agreed financial and risk parameters.
  • With the support of the Senior Development Manager, manage negotiations in a transparent, trustworthy, and honest manner and to ensure the reputation of the company is safeguarded at all times and ensure that projects are contracted in accordance with the approvals and in accordance with the adopted policies and procedures.
  • Support the preparation and submission of compliant bids and grant claims.
  • Work with the Grant Team to provide updates on any changes and to achieve agreed funding deadlines

  • Local knowledge of both the social housing and wider residential sectors, in particular an understanding of social housing development, housing management and regulatory requirements
  • Knowledge and/or experience of developing new business relationships
  • Acting efficiently and productively within defined decision making processes
  • Commercial and/or financial management of affordable housing schemes.
  • A self-driven entrepreneurial spirit that embraces change and opportunity
  • A commercially minded individual that works collaboratively with colleagues within and across the business with the capability of being highly effective in a corporate environment
  • Ability to build new business ventures and teams to change business models and be “disruptive”
  • You are a team player and able to work collaboratively and constructively within the team and the wider business. You will show respect and consideration for others and work co-operatively towards shared objectives.
  • You will be proactive, set high standards, be targets focused and able to work independently, taking responsibility for your work.
  • You are a self-motivated individual who is not afraid to ask questions and you show a keen commitment to improve your knowledge and skills through ongoing personal and professional development.


Whatever your role, we reward performance and behaviour with a package that looks after all the things that are important to you. Here are some of the benefits we offer:
