You will bring:

• strong expertise in audit, financial reporting, risk and assurance;
• the ability to interpret complex information and draw out the key issues;
• sound judgement and an independent mindset;
• confidence to challenge constructively and proportionately;
• a collaborative, calm and inclusive approach; and
• an understanding of social housing, governance and the regulatory environment.
