Due to the appointment of our Vice Chair to Board Chair, we now have a rare opportunity to appoint a Chair of the People Committee, here at Your Housing Group. At the heart of our mission at Your Housing Group, is a commitment to both delivering excellent customer service to our tenants and leaseholders as well as building and maintaining as many quality houses as possible. We have a large and diverse portfolio of over 25,000 properties for social and affordable rent, supported living, and innovative private rental offers, spanning the North West, Yorkshire, and the Midlands, and are a Strategic Partner to Homes England. In the last few years, we have streamlined our group structure and developed more effective business/customer facing services. We have invested a significant amount in our assets and are well advanced in our Building Safety works. As an organisation we have planned for the future and are delivering on our three-year Corporate Strategy, to deliver our vision to provide more people a safe place to call home. We also know that the sector faces challenges as we move forward, and we want to continue to ensure our Board represents all kinds of backgrounds, perspectives, and reflects the communities we serve, so we are looking to attract Non-Executive Directors that share our vision, values, and goals to steer us through the next stage of our development.
