About Black Country Housing Group (BCHG):

Black Country Housing Group (BCHG) is a long?established, community?focused housing provider working across the Black Country and Birmingham. We own and manage around 2,200 homes across a range of tenures, and we play an active role in supporting residents and strengthening the communities we serve. Our offer includes affordable homes for rent, shared ownership and leasehold properties, residential care, supported living and retirement living.

From April, we will launch a new Strategic Plan that sets out how we will support our customers, communities and colleagues through what is likely to be a challenging period for the sector. The plan is ambitious but realistic, balancing our social purpose with the need to remain a resilient, well?governed and financially sustainable organisation in a rapidly changing operating environment.

We are investing significantly in our existing homes, our care and support services, our colleagues, our technology and digital infrastructure, and our development programme. Our G1/V1 regulatory grading reflects our strong foundations, effective governance and the assurance systems we have in place to manage risk and deliver for our customers.

What We are Looking for:

We are now seeking a Board member who shares our commitment to high-quality, affordable homes and person-centred services, and who understands the vital role housing associations play in placemaking and strengthening communities.

We are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in digital, AI and cyber, or in Social Care policy and Care Quality Commission (CQC) regulation, while remaining open to individuals whose values align with BCHG s and who may bring lived experience as a valuable and desirable perspective.
