Winchester
is a unique place of history and heritage that today is home to a vibrant and diverse cultural scene, a strong local economy, and is set within a beautiful landscape with 40% of the district inside the South Downs National Park. As a destination that attracts visitors from across the world, it should come as no surprise that Winchester is a place where expectations and ambitions are high.

Winchester City Council is landlord for over 5,000 homes and is widely recognised for its strong track record in tackling
homelessness
. While the council continues to perform highly in homelessness prevention, demand for support is steadily rising. The Council has recently received a regulatory C3 judgement for consumer standards and has devised a comprehensive action plan to meet the new consumer standards which will be a key area of work.

We are looking to appoint an
experienced senior leader
to build on the excellent progress that is being made in addressing these challenges. An understanding of the strategies to address
housing
need, coupled with knowledge of the relevant legislation and regulatory requirements of a registered provider of affordable housing, will be essential.

Our
Corporate Head of Housing
is also part of our senior leadership team. We are therefore looking for a highly capable leader who can deliver a range of high-quality frontline services. You will offer sound professional advice to elected members and colleagues and inspire the whole team in pursuit of continued improvement to shape a modern and efficient service, especially as the council prepares for Local Government Reorganisation.

You will have experience at a senior level in a similar role, and your knowledge should be supported by a highly accomplished management style – especially demonstrating the management capabilities to build strong teams and a culture of aspiring for excellent service delivery. You will be a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Housing Management (or hold a Level 5 qualification of a similar nature).

You should be confident in engaging, advising, and influencing within a political environment and across key partnerships. A positive mindset and collaborative approach are essential to finding the right solutions for our district. If you are ready to lead our highly motivated service teams and deliver results at pace, we encourage you to apply.
