Job Details
Homes England will combine its land, money, expertise and powers to get more homes built in areas of greatest need. Our goal is to help deliver 300,000 homes a year by the mid-2020s. We are transforming the way we work with a new operating model and a shift from a task-based role to mission-focussed responsibilities.
As part of this, we have recently created a new central Assurance team. The team is responsible for developing an assurance culture and strategy, embedding assurance structures, and strengthening the organisation’s business cases.
In this context, your role in this new post will be to speed up the approval of high quality business cases, strengthen delivery confidence, and improve outcomes for house building in England. This role is vital to Homes England’s plans to spend over £29 billion over the next two years. You will provide assurance to senior stakeholders at MHCLG, HMT and IPA to build their confidence in Homes England and earn it more freedoms, flexibilities and powers to deliver its mission.
Company
Homes England is the new national housing agency, recently launched to play a major role in fixing the housing market and enabling delivery of homes that our country needs.
Homes England brings together land, money, expertise, and planning & compulsory purchase powers, with a clear remit to facilitate delivery of sufficient new homes, where they are most needed, to deliver a sustained improvement in affordability. We work locally in individual communities to help meet local priorities.
We invest mostly in building new homes, but also in creating employment floor space and other community facilities, in cities, towns and villages across the country. The homes we fund include affordable homes for rent and sale, and homes for rent or sale at market prices. Our investment helps build around half of all new homes built in England each year. It also helps increase local growth by creating jobs and supporting businesses.
We own public land, which we sell to house builders and others. This is one of the ways in which we overcome barriers to development and help increase the speed with which house builders can build new homes.
Homes England is an executive non-departmental public body, sponsored by the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government.
Homes England was launched by the Secretary of State on 11 January 2018. Homes England is the trading name of Homes and Communities Agency. To find out more about what we do please visit: www.gov.uk/government/organisations/homes-England.
