Housing recruitment is all about finding talented individuals who can lead in an ever changing and increasingly complex sector. Numerous delivery models and significant mergers and acquisitions have created increasingly large, complex and more commercially focused organisations. Housing recruitment is increasingly defined by the attraction of senior executives from the both the public and private sectors; regardless of sector, it requires individuals who relish an evolving challenge in a dynamic industry.

Odgers Berndtson’s Housing Practice is expert at sourcing executive and non-executive leaders for clients right across the housing, care and social enterprise sector, including:

  • Housing Associations
  • Local authority housing departments
  • Arms Length Management Organisations (ALMO)
  • Not-for-profit service providers
  • Other social enterprises

Increasingly, our clients want us to find strategic leaders with commercial acumen. We often take a lateral approach to housing executive search, focusing on hard skills rather than specific public sector or not for profit experience. Our extensive reach across both public and private sectors, our UK offices and international networks, combine to give us an advantage in finding outstanding candidates. In addition, our function experts, and our Interim Management and Select practices enable our housing executive search process to source talent for permanent senior roles, temporary leadership requirements and middle management positions. Our assessment team also offers a wide range of assessment solutions.
