Broadland are seeking an Independent Non‑Executive Director to join its Board at an important time for the organisation and the wider housing sector.
Broadland provides good‑quality, affordable homes across Norfolk and North Suffolk and exists to make a positive difference for people and communities. Like many housing associations, we are operating in a challenging environment — balancing financial pressures, regulatory expectations and increasing demand for homes and services.
This is a substantive governance role. As a Board member, you will help set strategic direction, oversee performance and risk, and support — and where appropriate challenge — the Chief Executive and Executive Team.
We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in treasury, lending, funding or corporate finance, who understand the stewardship of long‑term debt in mission‑led organisations. You do not need a housing background, and previous board experience is not essential.
The role requires sound judgement, strategic thinking, integrity, and a commitment to collective decision‑making and social impact.
Time commitment is typically around 1.5 days per month. The role attracts an annual fee of £5,400, plus expenses.
