Chair of the Board

Radcliffe Housing Society is a small, registered provider based in Sevenoaks, Kent, with properties across the Southeast. We are more than just a financially strong Housing provider, we are making an impact on the housing crisis, supporting sustainable communities, and providing life-long homes for our customers.

Our Chair is due to stand down in July 2026 and we are therefore seeking a new Chair of the Board to help us shape the future. This is an opportunity to lead an organisation with a clear social purpose, working alongside a committed Board and Executive to make sure the voice of our tenant’s guides everything we do.

In a new Chair, we are seeking someone who understands the current expectations placed upon the sector.   A Chair who can help us deliver on our ambitions and strengthen our role as a trusted partner across South London, Kent and Sussex.

Given the nature of the role, we are keen to attract candidates who have a proven track record in a Non-Executive (NED) role and can drive the delivery of our strategic objectives whilst working collaboratively to ensure our business runs effectively and that our residents continue to receive good quality services.

We welcome applicants from people of all backgrounds and lived experiences. Diversity strengthens our Board, and we are keen to hear from those who can bring fresh perspectives to help us reflect the communities we serve.

The position is voluntary (reasonable expenses paid) and there are 4 Board meetings per year (held remotely), plus the AGM and Board Away Day that take place in person.

Closing Date: Friday, 31st October 2025

Interview Date: TBC
