Group Board Members

At emh, we are passionate about community-focussed housing and care. Operating in more than 45 rural and urban local authority areas across the East Midlands, we manage more than 22,000 homes, employ over 1,100 colleagues, and have a turnover of £152.5 million. Our commitment to delivering excellent services and providing safe, secure homes underpins everything we do, and we continue to invest in a substantial development programme to meet long-term housing need.

Following the appointment of Danielle Oum as the Group Chair, and as part of our planned board renewal programme, we are now looking to appoint a number of new Group Board Members. For this round of appointments, we would particularly like to hear from candidates with expertise in areas including ICT/Cyber, Customer Service, Treasury, Audit & Assurance, OD and HR, and Care & Support.

This is a vital role: not only will you define and oversee the Group’s social purpose, mission, culture, behaviours and values, but you will also ensure that a strong, future-proofed strategic plan is in place to deliver our Group strategy. We’ll ask you to hold the voice of our residents at the heart of everything we do, to promote equality, diversity and inclusion, and to set the highest expectations for governance, compliance, risk and assurance. Each Group Board member is additionally expected to sit on one of our subsidiary boards, and you may also be asked to sit on a sub-committee.

Candidates will be able to demonstrate extensive experience of senior leadership (either executive or non-executive) within a complex and customer-focused organisation, and a good understanding of the non-executive role is a must. You’ll have a track record of working in alignment with emh group’s values and will bring an absolute commitment to excellent customer service. Strong candidates will be strategically astute, collaborative, ethical and have a strong sense of social purpose, and be ready to bring their energy, ambition and strategic expertise to the East Midlands.
