Job description

Overview

ateb Group

Executive Director for Development & Assets

Location: Haverfordwest/Hybrid

Salary: circa £115k plus benefits

The ateb Group comprises three companies that collectively aim to Create Better Living Solutions for the people and communities of West Wales. Better living starts with a place we can call home, but a home is more than just a house; it’s a safe, stable, secure environment where people can live their lives. Owning and managing 3,200 homes and planning to build 100 new homes yearly makes us a significant and growing housing provider in West Wales.

As the demands around us change, so must we. We are committing to developing new homes and tenures while investing in our existing homes to meet ambitious environmental standards. This has led to the creation of a new Development & Assets Directorate.

Responsibilities

• Lead three teams: Development, Strategic Asset Management, and Property Investment, comprising 25 posts.
• Oversee delivery of new homes across West Wales, management of strategic asset data, and multi-million pound investment programmes.
• Advance the Directorate’s plans to expand geographical reach, improve energy efficiency, and leverage market sales to support affordable housing.
• Lead on planned maintenance, land acquisition, strategic asset management, major repairs, commercial facilities, construction, and sales.
• Ensure regulatory compliance, promote equality and inclusion, lead change management, and advocate for the ateb Vision.
• Represent ateb in key development and asset dealings with stakeholders including lenders and the Welsh Government.

Qualifications & Qualities

• Strategic leader with high professional competency in property and development, ideally within a social housing context.
• Excellent leadership qualities that inspire teams and drive customer-focused outcomes based on a collaborative approach.
• A strong passion for social purpose and a commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion.
