Solihull Community Housing (SCH) is seeking two committed and forward thinking Board Members to help shape the future of social housing across Solihull. This is an important and exciting time for us, as we strengthen our approach to resident influence, formalise the tenant voice and establish a new Customer Committee. These developments reflect our ongoing commitment to ensuring residents are at the heart of our decision making and that our governance continues to support high quality, responsive and accountable services.

As the ALMO for Solihull Council, SCH is responsible for managing and maintaining thousands of homes and delivering a broad range of housing, neighbourhood and community services. Our work directly supports the wellbeing of residents and the resilience of local communities, and strong governance plays a central role in enabling this impact. We are therefore looking to appoint two individuals who share our values, bring fresh insight and are motivated by the opportunity to influence long term strategy and outcomes.

The first role requires strong asset management expertise gained within the housing sector. You will bring a deep understanding of stock investment, compliance, planned maintenance and long term asset planning, helping us make evidence based and future proof decisions about our homes. Your contribution will support our ambition to maintain safe, sustainable and well managed properties that continue to meet the needs of residents.

The second role is focused on strategic governance. We are seeking someone with excellent governance and organisational oversight skills, who may come from housing or from another regulated or transferable sector. You will understand effective governance, risk, assurance and high quality scrutiny, and you will bring constructive challenge that strengthens Board decision making. Your perspective will help ensure that SCH meets its responsibilities as a well run and forward thinking organisation.

We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and are committed to building a Board that reflects the diverse communities we serve. Diversity of thought lived experience and professional expertise all contribute to stronger governance, and we encourage those who may be considering a first Board role, as well as experienced non executives, to express their interest.

If you are passionate about social purpose and want to make a meaningful impact in Solihull, we would be delighted to hear from you.
