Job Details

Are you passionate about transforming lives through affordable housing and community development? Unity Homes and Enterprise is looking for dedicated individuals to join our Board and play a key role in guiding our strategic direction.

We are a successful, independent, and ambitious registered provider of social housing with c. 1,400 homes in Leeds and Kirklees. In addition to the provision of high-quality homes and services our social purpose also encompasses our aims to help improve the life chances and economic success of our tenants and of the communities within which we work, and to fight inequality and empower BME communities.

We are seeking a Chair who understands what great Board culture looks like and has the ability to harness and maximise the effectiveness of our Board, to maintain our high standards of governance. Previous non-executive board level experience, and experience chairing in some capacity are important, but we are open to this being your first full Board Chair role, and an understanding of the housing sector would be beneficial, but not essential.

We are looking for Board members who share our passion and drive to help people create a better future for themselves and their communities. Your readiness to engage, ability to demonstrate that you share our absolute passion for what we do, and commitment to our social purpose are every bit as important as your skill set.
