Job Description

Our client - Phoenix Community Housing - is recruiting two new non-executives to help drive excellent performance and customer service, and ensure regulatory compliance at the highest levels.

Created by tenants in 2007, Phoenix is a not-for-profit housing association based in South London. They own and manage more than 7600 homes in Lewisham and are building new homes with an emphasis on sustainability and high-quality design. Indeed, two recent developments were winners in the Housing Design Awards.

They are the first resident-led housing association in London and their model empowers tenants and leaseholders to take a central part in decision-making and become shareholder members. Under their rules, the Chair of the Board must be a tenant and tenants and leaseholders are currently the largest group on the management board. Residents are encouraged to get involved with Phoenix at all levels to influence services and define future priorities. It believes resident leadership is its core strength.

Phoenix’s vision is “Together, we are building a better future for our Phoenix community” and, helped by the strong strategic partnership they have with Lewisham Council, Phoenix proactively supports local community initiatives to improve the environment and quality of life for everyone who works and lives in south Lewisham.

Phoenix is looking to supplement its board level capability and are particularly interested in candidates with experience of finance, governance and HR. However, the key requirement is a desire to provide a high quality service to residents and the wider community.

This is a hybrid role, with board and committee meetings typically taking place in evenings.

Remuneration will be £4000 per annum.
