Who are we?
Portsmouth City Council's Portsmouth Homes housing story is built on over a century of innovation, care and commitment to our communities. From the city’s first council homes to the post‑war neighbourhoods that helped families rebuild their lives, we’ve always believed that good housing transforms futures.
Today, Portsmouth Homes manages around 17,000 council homes and leases across the region, continuing that legacy. We’re dedicated to providing safe, modern homes and strong neighbourhoods where people feel valued, supported and proud to live and are on an improvement journey to ensure we achieve a minimum C1 standard for all our services.
Your new role:
Portsmouth Homes is seeking an experienced and forward‑thinking Housing Professional to lead our Housing Management and Leasehold services teams. This is a senior leadership role responsible for ensuring high‑quality services, strong regulatory compliance, and an excellent experience for all residents—whether tenants, leaseholders or shared owners.
You will be part of the senior leadership team shaping strategic priorities across housing and leasehold management, driving service improvements, and you will lead a multi‑disciplinary team to deliver consistent, customer‑centred outcomes. You will also play a key role in supporting the organisation’s response to the Social Housing (Regulation) Act and the Regulator of Social Housing’s Consumer Standards.
The Housing Management service has recently been through a review resulting in a new structure focused on enhancing customer service and Portsmouth Homes visibility to our tenants out in the community so you will be responsible for the embedding of this structure and new ways of working as well as developing and inspiring your teams.
