1308 Chief Executive - Empower Housing Association

Chief Executive 

Empower Housing Association

Empower Housing Association provides high quality housing that is specifically adapted to the needs of adults with disabilities, enabling them to live independently within their community. Founded in 2003 and based in Chorley in Lancashire, we currently provide around 211 homes.

Our work makes an immense difference to the lives of our customers, offering them the tailored support and advice they need and the peace of mind that if something goes wrong in their home, we’re there to help them fix it.

Our new Chief Executive will provide the organisational leadership and strategic direction that will enable us to build on our strengths, continuing to put customers at the centre of what we do, and work closely with colleagues to set a path for continued growth and success.

You’ll play the central leadership role in setting, modelling and embedding our organisational values and ensuring that clearly defined business objectives map out a clear path for colleagues to work towards. You’ll ensure that the right structures and performance measurements enable all members of staff to have a clear understanding of their role and how they play a part in achieving our corporate objectives.

We expect that you will already have senior leadership experience including working at Board level within a social or supported housing setting and that you will be fully appraised of current legislation and policies. You’ll take the lead on ensuring that good governance and financial management underpin what we do, so we are particularly interested in hearing from people with proven experience of these aspects of leadership.

Most importantly you’ll be able to demonstrate your passion and commitment for supporting people with disabilities and a readiness to put their needs at the centre of service design, and to measure success by the positive difference we can make to our customers’ quality of life.
