LEADING ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT SERVICES IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT

This is a unique opportunity to lead change and deliver a first-class housing service that puts residents first. At Kensington and Chelsea we’re all in on building a brighter future for our residents and on being the best Council.

We’re seeking an exceptional leader to join us as our new Director of Housing Management. You’ll bring significant senior experience in social housing and a clear understanding of what it means to operate at a senior level within a politically-led local authority.

But just as important as your technical knowledge is your leadership style. We’re looking for someone who leads with integrity, accountability, and empathy—someone who can inspire a high-performing team, make smart decisions about scarce resources, and work collaboratively across the council and with our partners.

In the context of the Grenfell fire, this is a role with unique challenges and responsibilities. You will play a visible and hands-on role in ensuring resident safety, driving service improvement, and rebuilding confidence. That means being personally accessible to residents, responsive to their concerns, and genuinely committed to making their voices central to the service we provide.

This is a chance to make a real and lasting impact. If you’re driven by purpose and ready for a role that genuinely matters, we’d love to hear from you.
