Thank you for your interest in the position of Head of Property Services.

This is an exhilarating time to be working for TBG. As one of the first local authority trading companies to be created, we have blazed a trail in terms of growth and innovation in the housing sector and beyond, and are ambitious for more. We have grown from 250 employees to over 800 and now manage over 15,000 properties in addition to delivering the Council's homelessness service and housing options. We also have Your Choice Barnet, providing specialist care and support to adults with a range of mental and physical disabilities as a subsidiary of the TBG. We have a turnover of around GBP 75 million and are well into our 320 home development programme with most of these homes being delivered through our Registered Provider, Opendoor Homes.

We have a stretching but supportive culture and an excellent relationship with both the Council and the Board. The future of TBG is secure and we are in our 4th year of the ten-year management agreement for Barnet Homes.

The Head of Property Services will be responsible for the asset management strategy, major works & fire safety programmes, corporate health and safety, operational compliance and mechanical and electrical services. They will also play an active role in the operational leadership of TBG, as well as being responsible to the Executive team and the Board. This is a new role and the post-holder will help shape our strategic direction, maximise our opportunities for growth and ensure the sustainability of the business.

We are looking for innovative and people-focused candidates with the ability to work at a senior level within a complex organisation. A track record of driving improvement within relevant operational services and managing substantial budgets will be essential. Knowledge of the regulatory requirements for Registered Providers is desirable.

In return, this position offers a unique opportunity to take a leading role in a forward-thinking and growing organisation. You will lead a team with a track record of high performance in a challenging, fast-paced environment, and become part of a culture that prizes development in all.

I do hope that after reading this pack you will be inspired by our energy, ambition and hunger for growth as well as the importance we place on our people.
