Summary An experienced and professionally qualified manager with 35 years experience in affordable housing, with a wide knowledge of housing associations, local authorities, and private sector. For the last ten years I've worked on a freelance basis, mainly in the development and low cost home ownership fields, either directly or indirectly for housing associations. Prior to this I was the Director of Metropolitan Home Ownership, now one of the market leaders in the field, which we built up over the twelve years I was there from an embryonic association to a main player in the affordable home ownership field.I've got a track record of measurable achievement with an emphasis on the completion of affordable homes, and on common sense practical solutions to most problems.I also have a wide experience of managing change and of developing staff potential in both interim and permanent positions. I believe that staff motivation is critical in a 'knowledge' business like housing and that this applies more, not less, in our current challenging times.Specialties: Projecct management of affordable housing developmentLow cost home ownership development and marketing Leasehold managementBusiness Planning and reviews (mainly of the above)General and interim managementMarketing planning and feasibilitiesProject managementFeasibility studies
