About the role

Our retirement villages are vibrant communities offering high-quality homes alongside facilities such as restaurants, wellbeing centres and social spaces, while our Independent Living schemes provide safe, supportive housing with a strong sense of community for people who want to live independently in later life.

* Oversee budgets and resources, ensuring ancillary services (Food & Beverage, wellbeing, housekeeping) are sustainable and efficient.

* Work collaboratively with colleagues across Housing, Property, and Development to deliver joined-up, cost-effective solutions.

About you:

* An experienced leader with a track record of motivating and managing dispersed teams.

* Knowledge and experience of the retirement housing sector, particularly leasehold management within a regulated environment.

* Strong financial and commercial skills, with the ability to balance budgets and deliver value for money.

* Excellent communication and influencing skills, able to engage with a wide range of stakeholders.

* A solid understanding of housing regulation, compliance, safeguarding, and health & safety.

* Resilient and solutions-focused, able to handle complex issues with integrity and sensitivity.

Qualifications:

* Degree-level education or equivalent experience.

* Professional housing qualification (e.g. IRPM, CIH) is desirable.
