mhs homes is a high-performing, community-focused housing provider, committed to delivering safe, secure and affordable homes as a stepping stone to a better future. We believe everyone deserves a decent home, and our ambition is to help end the housing crisis in North Kent by keeping the customer voice at the heart of everything we do.
The mhs homes group manages 10,000 homes in the Medway, Maidstone, Gravesham, Dartford, and Tonbridge and Malling areas of Kent. This makes us the largest independent social landlord in the UK. The group includes Heart of Medway Housing Association (HoM) which manages over 1,200 homes and is regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing. This year, we underwent our first inspection and received the highest gradings of G1, V1 and C1. Heart of Medway’s services are delivered by mhs homes, and the board plays a critical role in making sure Heart of Medway provides excellent customer service and community value.
Through board succession, we are now looking to appoint a new Heart of Medway Board Member. For this role, we are seeking applications from those who have led or are currently leading customer and housing management services. The ability to engage and constructively challenge with positive outcomes is also vital and strong candidates will be operating at board level, either in an executive or non-executive capacity. Whilst you don’t need to live locally, a good understanding of the regional context and communities we serve is preferred.
We are committed to retaining a diverse board, reflective of the communities we serve, comprised of people who bring a broad mix of different skills and perspectives. We are keen to attract applicants from the broadest possible range of backgrounds.
