Social Housing Delivery Lead Consultant

Salary: £50,000-£60,000 (depending on sector depth and delivery leadership).

Benefits: Unlimited holiday, 5% matched pension, plus a healthcare scheme

A specialist advisory team is growing their Social Housing practice and is looking for a Delivery Lead Consultant to run end-to-end consulting engagements across housing associations-helping clients make confident decisions across housing management systems (HMS), digital/data strategy, applications, and transformation delivery.

This is a role for someone who can operate independently with clients, but who also enjoys being part of a collaborative team-sharing knowledge, developing others, and contributing to a strong delivery culture.

• Lead advisory projects end-to-end: scoping, planning, delivery, closure, and follow-up
• Build trusted relationships with housing clients and deliver high-quality outcomes
• Support and mentor more junior consultants (coaching, delegation, knowledge sharing)
• Improve delivery ways of working (process, quality, administration, utilisation)
• Contribute to business development in a natural way (networking, shaping opportunities, supporting proposals) - not a hard sales target at this level

Location: Home based, UK wide travel when required

Base hubs: Manchester / Durham / London (client-site as required).

• Hybrid setup; this will mainly be a remote set up, with travel to customer sites (all paid for).
• Some overnight travel may be required depending on client need

• Housing Management System (HMS) selections/procurement and delivery support (end-to-end implementation experience is a strong plus)
• IT / Digital & Data strategy (including roadmap and operating model direction)
• Application portfolio reviews and system reviews (often starting with repairs)
• Repairs and asset-related process improvement (e.g., work involving tools like Total Mobile, DRS, Plentific)
• Data platform direction (e.g., Microsoft Fabric, Databricks) from an advisory perspective (not hands-on engineering)

If you're a housing-sector delivery lead who enjoys shaping outcomes, building client trust, and improving how work gets delivered, get in touch!

Initial interviews can take place as soon as Thurs 27th Aug, with more slots available w/c 31st Aug.
