Description

Plymouth Community Homes is a high-performing housing business and Plymouth's most prominent social housing landlord, with over 16,000 properties providing homes for more than 35,000 people.  In addition to offering affordable and social rent properties in Plymouth and the surrounding areas, we sell shared ownership homes through our brand SO Living, selling more than 300 properties to date.

We want to provide a quality, affordable home for everyone who needs one while continuing to deliver truly excellent services for our residents. Our values are really important to us because they help to guide how we get the results we want. We care, respect, listen and do the right thing.  We welcome new ideas that give us a wider perspective, and our Board reflects this, with a variety of backgrounds and experiences present. 

We're seeking a Board member with a finance skillset, and we are particularly interested in treasury, corporate finance and capital markets experience. You’ll have a relevant professional qualification and whilst experience in the social housing sector is not necessary, you’ll share our desire to drive forward positive change for our residents and our communities.  We are an anchor organisation and perfectly placed to deliver regeneration and growth across the city and beyond.

Whether you already have non executive experience or not, this could be an excellent career-enhancing opportunity. You'll be an expert in your field, commercially savvy and able to scrutinise, challenge and strategically advise.  We estimate the time commitment required will be circa two days a month.
