SOHA is a mutually owned, community focused housing association. We are a financially strong association, developing c200 new homes a year, with strong resident and staff satisfaction. We own c8,000 homes within an hour’s travel time from Didcot which includes social housing, shared ownership, key worker housing and independent living accommodation, as well as four extra care schemes. As a community mutual organisation, our 800 shareholders play an active role in how we are governed, and resident engagement is absolutely central to our identity and decision making.

We are excited to be seeking a new Director of Finance and Resources to join our executive team and provide strategic leadership across finance and IT, helping shape the future of a financially strong, values led housing association. The wider resources brief means that there will be the opportunity to be forward-looking and ensure our systems most effectively support the business, and we have big plans in this area in the years to come.

You will be joining a strong and committed organisation with an ethos of service to our communities and a positive, collaborative culture of which we are very proud. Likely bringing experience from the social housing sector (though not necessarily), you will be a qualified senior finance professional already operating as a director or be ready for the step up to a position at this level. Beyond technical expertise, we are seeking energy, enthusiasm, and a commitment to continuous improvement, with the confidence to contribute strategically at executive and board level.

If you are motivated by strong financial stewardship, community impact, and the opportunity to help lead a high performing housing association into its next chapter, we would be delighted to hear from you.
