£2,125 per annum + expenses

Our client is a charitable housing association with a long history of providing affordable housing in and around Cambridge. 

They are a small, but ambitious housing association, that is passionate about providing safe affordable homes for their customers. They are committed to working in partnership with their residents to ensure they deliver better customer service and focus on services which are important to them.

Their Board is supported by three committees: Audit & Risk Committee, People Committee and Customer Experience Group. In addition, the Finance Working Group and the Investment and Growth Working Group also support the Board. 

This role provides the opportunity to not only sit on the Audit & Risk Committee, but also to play an integral part of the Group's strategic planning. In this role, you will be part of their strategy days. 

The Independent Committee Member role on the Audit & Risk Committee would be ideal for a senior finance professional within the social housing sector. You’ll be a qualified accountant with knowledge at a senior level of internal and external audit, strategic management of risk and financial reporting. 

It is not essential that applicants have been a Committee Member of a housing organisation before, but applicants should have a commitment to customer service, a knowledge of what makes for good governance, and excellent communication and leadership skills.  

They are looking for candidates who are passionate about making a difference to the people and communities we serve. They particularly encourage applications from those living and working in the Cambridge area and from people from a wide variety of backgrounds or experience. 

If you are interested in this role, we would love to hear from you.

The deadline for applications is 14th November 2024 and the interviews are planned on 3rd and 4th December.
