For almost 60 years, Hyde has provided affordable homes that help deliver our vision of a great home for everyone. Partnerships with organisations that share our values and focus on customers are central to our long‑term strategy and our founding social purpose. Today, we own and/or manage around 120,000 homes and provide neighbourhood services to approximately 350,000 customers across the country.

As we continue to deliver our long‑term strategic plan, we remain fully committed to building a truly modern, customer‑centric organisation that provides safe, reliable, energy‑efficient homes and high‑quality services that improve people’s life chances. Our focus is both forward‑looking and firmly grounded in our social mission. We are now seeking an exceptional Non‑Executive Director to join the Board and sit on the Group Investment Committee to help strengthen this mission.

The Group Investment Committee (GIC) plays a pivotal role in shaping and governing Hyde’s investment model. It provides rigorous scrutiny of major investment proposals and maintains clear strategic oversight of our evolving partnerships with institutional capital. As a Board Member and GIC Member, you will help ensure our investment decisions are financially sustainable, commercially grounded and deliver long‑term value for customers and communities.

You will also uphold the customer perspective, ensuring that quality, safety and long‑term community benefit remain central to strategic investment discussions.

We are seeking someone with significant real estate investment expertise, ideally gained at Board or committee level. You will have a deep understanding of how institutional capital behaves and the credibility to engage effectively with funders, partners and stakeholders across the real estate and investment landscape. You will be comfortable operating within structured investment models, particularly partnerships where Hyde or Pinnacle manages assets rather than owning or building them outright.

Your commercial acumen will enable you to act as a balanced, independent sounding board on major investment proposals and portfolio‑level decisions, offering informed, high‑stakes judgement.

Alongside this, you will bring strong strategic finance awareness and the confidence to operate where principal decision‑making sits at Board level. You will help maintain the integration of investment and finance conversations as Hyde continues to strengthen its funding model, ensuring clarity, discipline and long‑term resilience across the organisation. You will also understand that Hyde operates in a highly regulated environment and appreciate the need to deliver thriving, high‑quality communities for customers within this framework, bringing the ability to balance customer outcomes, development quality and strategic financial sustainability.

While not essential, if you bring broader experience of working with or knowledge of the construction sector, this would add helpful practical context to the decisions considered by GIC.

This experience can support a deeper understanding of the risks inherent in development and construction, adding strength to the Committee’s ability to test assumptions and interrogate delivery risks and long‑term asset performance.

As part of Hyde’s Board, you will ensure the customer voice remains central to our strategy and decision‑making, helping to ensure that investment choices contribute to safe homes, high‑quality services and strong communities. You will also play a part in supporting a culture that reflects the diversity of our customers and communities. Hyde welcomes applications from people of all backgrounds and is a Disability Confident employer, with support and mentoring available for those stepping into their first non‑executive role.
