The role will focus on a range of factors contributing to delivery including driving data integrity, developing processes, working closely with the Performance team and presenting data through Power BI and becoming a competent source of guidance and advice.

 

 

A bit about you…

 

Whilst our day job is to deliver first class customer service to our stakeholders, you will be used to working in a fast-paced environment and will always be looking for ways to improve and innovate.

  • Takes a logical approach to problem solving and works at speed through a range of different tasks and priorities
  • Is proactive and has a clear focus on achieving results and communicating them clearly

 

Delivering on a mission as bold as ours isn’t always easy. You will be resilient and will enjoy working in an innovative, fun and engaging way and be able to understand and work with multiple data sources. You’ll also understand how to support colleagues and be able to demonstrate you can work with others as part of a team in a collaborative, inclusive way.

As the government’s housing and regeneration agency, we create thriving new places and transform urban areas, combining the full breadth of our powers, expertise, land, capital and influence to bring investment to communities and get more homes built. 

 

How? We form long-term partnerships that bridge the gap between the public and private sector to meet local needs and aspirations. We use our influence to champion the creation of sustainable homes, communities and places that are brilliantly designed for the people that live there now, and in the future. And we use our funding and support to build a more resilient, diverse and innovative housing sector, helping new entrants in the market, encouraging modern methods of construction and design, and promoting the utmost attention to building safety. 

 

Together with our partners, we’re accelerating the pace of house building, remediation and regeneration across the country, as we seek to deliver ever more affordable homes in places people are proud to call home for generations to come.
