Hightown is recruiting for two new Board members.
Hightown is led by a Board of Non-Executive Directors, responsible for providing scrutiny and long-term, strategic direction for the Association.
The Board comprises ten elected non-executive members and, after reviewing its succession plan, agreed that the composition of the Board would benefit from a new Board Member with experience of care & supported housing services and a Board Member from a different sector who can contribute an alternative perspective, plus strategic and analytical thinking to the Board.
Board Members usually sit on two or three of our committees and most meetings are held in the evenings at Hightown’s main office in Hemel Hempstead.
Candidates should have an understanding of governance and regulation, a commitment to inclusion, a strong interest in social housing and support services, financial acumen, sound judgement, accountability and the ability to work collaboratively. Above all you should share Hightown’s values and put residents and service users first.
