Job Description

Our client is a development company based in Kent wholly owned by a local council, established to deliver high-quality residential and commercial development as part of the Council’s ambitious regeneration programme.

As one of the largest regeneration areas in the Thames Gateway, there is significant investment planned to create new homes, jobs and vibrant urban and waterfront communities. Since commencing operations in 2019, our client has delivered 375 new homes, with a further 380 secured for delivery over the next five years and additional schemes in the pipeline.

To support the next phase of growth, they are seeking two experienced Non-Executive Directors to join the Board. Working alongside fellow Board members, you will provide strategic oversight, constructive challenge and strong governance, ensuring the Company delivers its objectives while remaining accountable to its shareholder.

Remuneration: £8,755 per annum + reasonable expenses

About You

You will bring senior-level experience in housing, property development, construction or a related sector, with a strong understanding of commercial drivers, risk and governance.

Key Responsibilities

  • Offer strategic insight and support on development opportunities, market trends, and business planning.
  • Provide independent judgement and challenge in Board discussions and decision‑making. Support robust governance, risk management, and financial stewardship.
  • Act as a sounding board to the MD and senior leadership team.
  • Contribute expertise in areas such as property development, investment, planning, construction, ESG, or finance.
  • Champion high standards of transparency, ethics, and performance across the business.

Why Join Us?

  • Opportunity to influence a high‑growth development business at a strategic level.
  • Work with an ambitious leadership team and contribute to meaningful long‑term impact. Flexible time commitment suitable for experienced professionals seeking portfolio roles.
  • The company has a strong social purpose.

Closing date: Friday 6 February 2026 at 12 noon. Interviews will be held online on 10 and 11 February.
