Interim Director of Finance & Corporate Services
The Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) is looking for an Interim Director of Finance & Corporate Services to join at an important point for the organisation.
This is a senior, hands-on corporate leadership role, responsible for helping to keep the corporate centre running well while also strengthening how it works. Sitting as part of the Executive Team, the role covers Finance, HR, Organisational Development and Learning, Digital and IT, Corporate Services, Risk, Business Planning and Programme Management.
This role is about providing operational leadership across corporate functions, making sure things are joined up, clear, and working in support of the organisation’s priorities. There is also a need to bring greater coherence and confidence to the corporate centre, improving how teams connect with each other and how decisions and information flow.
Alongside this, the Interim Director of Finance & Corporate Services will work closely with the change function already in place to support an active transformation programme. That includes helping turn plans into delivery, particularly around HR transformation, digital and data capability, corporate planning and performance, and improving the overall effectiveness of the centre.
The role also carries responsibility for financial stewardship and assurance, including budgeting, statutory accounts, audit and risk. It involves regular engagement with government sponsors and external assurance bodies, so comfort working within formal accountability frameworks is important.
We’re looking for someone with senior leadership experience in complex public or regulated environments. Whilst responsible for finance, experience of leading broad corporate services functions and working across organisational boundaries is just as important.
It’s a chance to step into a visible and important role in a national regulator, help stabilise and strengthen the corporate centre, and support a period of real change in how the organisation operates.
