Director of Property Services

Our mission is to provide homes in neighbourhoods that people are proud to live in. With over 20,000 homes under our management, St. Leger Homes is an award-winning company with a long-standing reputation for providing excellent housing services. Now is a positive time to join us as we welcome our new Chief Executive, and we have recently secured a new five-year management agreement with Doncaster Council. The council sees social housing as a key priority and plans to invest £100m in new homes by 2025.

We are looking for an exceptional, ambitious and skilled Director to join us and lead our Property Services directorate. Reporting to the Chief Executive, you’ll be a key member of our Executive Management Team, positively impacting through organisation-wide leadership and strategic planning. With responsibility for the development and delivery of our asset investment strategy, and management of our repairs and maintenance services, you’ll provide inspirational leadership with a focus on service excellence, continuous improvement and innovation.

You will also ensure the highest health, safety and compliance standards and drive cultural change so that we are at the cutting edge of delivering on the Building Safety Bill & Fire Safety Bill agenda, as well as complying with statutory property compliance. In addition, you’ll lead the development, implementation and delivery of a new five-year Asset Management and Environmental Strategy.

As a results driven property professional, with a successful track record of leading building, property or maintenance services, your expertise will ensure that our teams deliver a customer experience amongst the best in the sector. You’ll also bring insight into managing multi-million pound capital programmes, delivering projects on time and within budget. This is an outstanding opportunity to contribute to achieving St. Leger Homes’ vision, helping us remain a top performing, values-led community housing provider.
