This is your opportunity to place people at the heart of organisational success – strengthening culture, deepening tenant and community engagement, and enhancing Cairn’s reputation and impact.

We’re looking for a values-driven, emotionally intelligent leader with strong communication skills and a passion for people and performance. Whether your background is in housing or another sector, if you can inspire teams, deliver outcomes, and think strategically, we want to hear from you.

Join a forward-thinking, tenant-focused organisation with flexible working, a supportive executive team, and the chance to make a real, lasting difference.
