You will be accustomed to managing multiple tasks simultaneously and will always seek ways to improve and innovate.
You will be comfortable challenging delivery forecasts and the underlying assumptions upon which they are based, drawing parallels across business areas to identify issues and key risks to delivery.
Delivering on a mission as bold as ours isn’t always easy. You will be resilient and comfortable communicating and collaborating with stakeholders across the organisation at different levels.
Who are we? Homes England: The Housing and Regeneration Agency
We believe that affordable, quality homes in well-designed places are key to improving people’s lives. As the government’s housing and regeneration agency, we create thriving new places and transform urban areas, combining the full breadth of our powers, expertise, land, capital, and influence to bring investment to communities and get more homes built.
We form long-term partnerships that bridge the gap between the public and private sector to meet local needs and aspirations. We use our influence to champion the creation of sustainable homes, communities, and places that are brilliantly designed for the people who live there now and in the future. We use our funding and support to build a more resilient, diverse, and innovative housing sector, helping new entrants in the market, encouraging modern methods of construction and design, and promoting the utmost attention to building safety.
Together with our partners, we’re accelerating the pace of house building, remediation, and regeneration across the country, as we seek to deliver ever more affordable homes in places people are proud to call home for generations to come.
What we offer... As well as a competitive salary and 33 days annual leave, we are committed to 50/50 hybrid working. We’ll support you, wherever possible, so that you don’t miss out on what matters to you.
If you ever need a bit of extra help, we have a great employee assistance programme, financial wellbeing support, and access to many great discounts with leading high street names.
Our range of network groups are also there to support you to be yourself at work and play a key role in helping shape our future.
If you are a member of a professional body, we’ll pay for your membership and once you get your digital kit, you’ll be good to go.
Homes England is a geographically diverse community. We work to a 50/50 office/home-based model. Moving back into our office environments has enabled us to utilise our space and time together in the most collaborative way.
We would encourage all applicants to apply as soon as possible as we may close vacancies early should we receive a high number of applications.
If your application is shortlisted for interview, we will require you to provide proof of your right to work in the UK at this stage.
