Independent Committee Members – Customer Experience Committee

Join Accent Housing Group’s Customer Experience Committee and help shape “a place to be” for thousands of customers across England.

Accent Housing Group owns 22,000 homes across the North, East, and South of England and provides services to over 41,000 customers. Accent exists to the improve lives of customers, by providing high-quality homes. Whatever their housing need, customers come first.

It is an exciting time for the organisation as Accent looks to implement a new customer framework to ensure that at every opportunity, customers receive a first-class service. But not just that, Accent wants services to be customer-led, enabling customers to play a meaningful role in designing services and holding them to account to make sure they deliver. Accent are also proud of their Homes England Strategic Partnership, which allows them to build even more homes in areas of housing need.

Accent are currently looking to recruit two Independent Committee Member positions on the Customer Experience Committee, in line with the approved succession plan. Accent are looking for individuals who will continue to build on Accent’s success, offering strategic oversight, expert insight and constructive challenge to ensure Accent delivers now and for the future.

The Customer Experience Committee is responsible for overseeing the delivery of services across the organisation and monitoring performance. A key element of the committee’s work is to act as a strategic link between the Board and customers - sharing resident views, reflecting on the delivery of landlord services, and helping to shape customer-facing policy and strategy.

Core responsibilities include:

• Monitoring Accent’s overall service delivery and customer performance.
• Overseeing the implementation and impact of Accent’s new customer influence framework.
• Providing strategic oversight of tenancy management, customer-facing policies and improving complaints handling.
• Driving improvement in customer satisfaction and perception.
• Sharing resident feedback and championing customer insight within governance.
• Ensuring customer voice is reflected in the organisation’s strategic decisions.

Accent is looking to appoint Independent Committee Members with the following attributes:

• Experience of delivering exceptional customer experience within the social housing sector.
• A strong and current understanding of the Regulator of Social Housing’s consumer standards.
• Experience working across multiple geographies and customer demographics.
• Ability to interpret and challenge performance data constructively.
• A commitment to inclusive, customer-led service design and delivery.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills.

Time commitment:

• Committees meet approximately 6 times per year.
• Where required, additional meetings may be held to support the organisation’s business, and Strategy Days are held twice per year for all NEDs.
• The annual commitment for a Committee Member is likely to be around 8 days.
• Meetings are held across Bradford, Peterborough and other locations. All applicants must have the capacity and availability to travel.

Remuneration:

• Committee member – £4,500 per annum
• Reasonable expenses are reimbursed, and training opportunities are provided.

Accent are building a place to be - for everyone.

Accent are committed to creating a diverse, inclusive, and values-led organisation where people feel welcome, respected, and empowered. Guided by their values of Caring, Inclusive, Smart, and Driven, we actively encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Our recruitment process is fair, accessible, and designed to ensure equal opportunities for all. As a Disability Confident employer, we’re happy to make reasonable adjustments throughout the process, just let us know how we can support you. Because at Accent, a place to be means a place where everyone belongs.

We greatly appreciate the time taken to apply. While we review every application, the volume received means we cannot guarantee feedback for all applicants.

Do you have significant experience in committee work and/or drafting, especially in a regulatory body or similar field? Are you seeking a chance to enhance your skills and knowledge within an organisation that offers diverse, engaging, and challenging work?  If so, join us and make a meaningful contribution - supporting the Hearings Service in this high profile and public forum. 

As part of our commitment to safeguarding patient safety and upholding public trust in dental services, we conduct formal public hearings to address cases involving dental professionals. In the role of Committee Secretary/Senior Hearings Officer, you will play a crucial role in both drafting decisions and providing support for the coordination and management of hearings, related to fitness to practice allegations against dentists and dental care professionals.

 Your responsibilities will include: 

• Sitting as Committee Secretary in hearings, providing support, procedural advice and guidance to the Chair, Committee Members, Legal Adviser, parties and witnesses.
• Summarising cases and preparing draft determinations, reflecting the Committee’s decisions and it’s reasons.
• Resolving problems that may arise during a hearing and keeping cases on track.
• Ensuring administrative procedures are carried out in accordance with GDC rules and regulations.
• Deciding on and arranging for payment of all fees due to the Chair and Committee Members for hearings.
• Examining legal information and evaluating case bundles prior to commencement of cases.

 About you:  

• You will require in-depth knowledge and understanding of professional regulation, hearings and/or legal or adjudicatory processes.
• Experience of working as a Committee/Panel Secretary who drafts decisions, not simply minutes of meetings.  
• Work well in a highly pressured environment of a public hearing.
• Proficient in determination writing, and the recording of decisions based on the Committee’s reasons, within tight time constraints.
• Well-developed interpersonal skills, and the ability to provide a professional presence in a formal and public tribunal setting, are equally important. 

About us:

Our primary purpose is to protect patient safety and maintain public confidence in dental services. To achieve this, we register qualified dental professionals, set standards for the dental team, investigate complaints about dental professionals' fitness to practise, and work to ensure the quality of dental education.

Our work matters and so do our people. We are committed to providing a working environment that embraces and values diversity and inclusion by recruiting and strengthening our teams with team members from different backgrounds, life experiences and viewpoints. Equality and diversity are not just words, they are what makes our teams strong and able to deliver. We want to be champions of diversity and to have a sense of belonging in the workplace, where everybody has the chance to contribute and to share what is important to them.

Benefits:
