How are we managed

 

Our Board is responsible for setting our long and short term strategy and direction, and for approving plans which will help us achieve our objectives. They also ensure we are operating effectively and that our activities are carried out within the law and in line with accepted standards of performance. They are also responsible for ensuring that we meet the Tenant Services Authority's regulatory requirements.

The day to day operations are managed by the Senior Management Team of three, led by our Chief Executive. The team is responsible for the Company's operational management and performance whilst working with the Board in setting our overall strategic direction.

There are normally four Board meetings a year. Below are some examples of the kind of things that they do or decide:

  • Approve our Corporate Plan and monitor progress against it
  • Approve key policies and policy changes make decisions about plans to build or acquire homes and to demolish or dispose of land and properties
  • Review the efficiency and effectiveness of our work and the standard and level of services we provide (e.g. through the performance and progress reports)
  • Review our financial performance and decide on matters which may involve significant financial or other risks
  • Agree our approach to risk, approve the framework which we use to manage risk and review the effectiveness of this framework
  • Appoint the Chief Executive and Directors

The Board is assisted by a number of Sub-Committees that meet quarterly and generally consider more detailed information in monitoring the performance of the organisation. These Sub-Committees are;

  • Risk Assessment & Audit
  • Remuneration
