Asset and Development Committee Chair Designate

Welcome from the Chair of the Board

Thank you for your interest in joining the Board of L&Q as Chair of our Asset & Development Committee.

L&Q‘s purpose is to provide social homes and landlord services that everyone can be proud of.. As one of the UK’s largest housing associations, we have a responsibility not only to invest in and maintain our existing homes, but also to ensure that our development ambitions support our long-term purpose and create lasting value for current and future residents.

This is an exciting time for L&Q. We have brought together our asset management, investment and development activities within a single directorate, creating the opportunity for a more joined-up and strategic approach to how we invest in resident’s homes, neighbourhoods and communities. This role will be central to helping the Board oversee that integration, ensuring we think holistically about the entire lifecycle of homes and make decisions that balance investment in existing properties with future development ambitions.

As Chair of the Asset & Development Committee, you will help shape discussions on some of the most important decisions facing the organisation. We are looking for someone who can lead thoughtful and constructive debate, provide robust challenge and support, and help the Committee maintain a clear line of sight between strategic investment decisions and the experience of residents. While this role carries significant responsibility for assets, development and regeneration, it is ultimately about people. These are residents’ homes, and their safety, wellbeing and experience must remain at the heart of every decision we make.

You will be joining a Board that is committed to long-term stewardship, strong governance and continuous improvement. We value diverse perspectives, collaborative working and a shared commitment to delivering positive outcomes for residents. If you are excited by the opportunity to help shape L&Q’s future, while ensuring we continue to invest wisely in the homes and places that matter most to residents, I hope you will consider applying.

I look forward to learning more about your interest in the role.
