About The Employer

Our client, a Housing Association, is a leading national rural specialist working to provide affordable homes in small villages for local people. They own and manage around 1,300 affordable properties, spread amongst 150 villages, and have a development programme of around 200 more homes over the next three to four years.

About the role:

This is an exciting opportunity to join a small but professional and friendly development team to continue the delivery of a high-quality new build homes programme.

This Association designs their homes to high standards, incorporating local architectural features. Theor ‘fabric first’ approach to design and construction, coupled with and their commitment to renewable energy technologies, aims to reduce environmental impact and running costs for residents. They build beautiful homes that villages can be proud of. Their approach involves forming a community led local partnership to research, enable and deliver affordable rural homes.

Working under the leadership of the Development Director and collaboratively with internal colleagues and external consultants and contractors, the role will be to fully coordinate from inception to completion the day-to-day project management of rural exception site housing delivery (noting, this Association does deliver some through selective Section 106 planning gain schemes). Their typical sites are around six to ten affordable homes, although they can also develop a small number of outright sale homes through a LTD subsidiary to cross subsidise the affordable homes.

About you:

To succeed in this role, you will have a proven track record in working and successfully delivering affordable housing development and preferably rural housing. You will need excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with an ability to work both collaboratively and independently. It takes a special project manager with professionalism, enthusiasm, tenacity and a great deal of pride to stay the course and deliver these small, often challenging yet ultimately rewarding community housing schemes. The right candidate will also have sufficient technical expertise, from a formal qualification or direct experience. This employer is looking to invest in and develop the right candidate to grow with the business.

Interviews: In London on either 7th or 8th November 2024
