Housing and Land The Housing and Land directorate is responsible for the Mayor's plans to deliver new and improved homes and strong communities. Working closely with boroughs and partners, we manage the Mayor's housing investment programmes and land and property assets to support the building of affordable homes, job creation and regeneration. About the team The housing crisis is one of the greatest challenges facing the capital - and the Mayor of London is committed to tackling it. The scale of the challenge is huge and the Greater London Authority (GLA) is working hard to address the housing shortage focusing on affordable housing and providing help for people feeling the effects of the housing crisis across London. The Programme Team is based in the Housing Land directorate within the GLA. The directorate consists of around 200 people split between housing delivery, policy, land-based development and support teams. Our overall aim is to deliver the Mayor's housing objectives and improve the lives of Londoners through the work that we do. The Programme Team consists of three senior managers, four senior programme co-ordinators, two programme managers and a reporting analyst. The team is led by the Head of Programme Management and we support the whole directorate to deliver the Mayor's housing and land objectives. We're a small and well-respected team in the wider GLA and directorate and our focus is always to help improve areas that support delivery of housing programmes. About the role We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and committed person to join the GLA's Housing and Land Directorate. We are looking for a Senior Programme Co-ordinator to join our Programme Team and work on all aspects of programme management for affordable housing programmes within the Mayor's housing and land portfolio. This vacancy is for a fixed term position for 18 months. The role would suit someone with experience of working on large scale programmes, with a flair for insightful data analysis and experience in developing procedures and processes that continually improve reporting and monitoring.

Housing and Land The Housing and Land directorate is responsible for the Mayor's plans to deliver new and improved homes and strong communities. Working closely with boroughs and partners, we manage the Mayor's housing investment programmes and land and property assets to support the building of affordable homes, job creation and regeneration. About the team The housing crisis is one of the greatest challenges facing the capital - and the Mayor of London is committed to tackling it. The scale of the challenge is huge and the Greater London Authority (GLA) is working hard to address the housing shortage focusing on affordable housing and providing help for people feeling the effects of the housing crisis across London. The Programme Team is based in the Housing Land directorate within the GLA. The directorate consists of around 200 people split between housing delivery, policy, land-based development and support teams. Our overall aim is to deliver the Mayor's housing objectives and improve the lives of Londoners through the work that we do. The Programme Team consists of three senior managers, four senior programme co-ordinators, two programme managers and a reporting analyst. The team is led by the Head of Programme Management and we support the whole directorate to deliver the Mayor's housing and land objectives. We're a small and well-respected team in the wider GLA and directorate and our focus is always to help improve areas that support delivery of housing programmes. About the role We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and committed person to join the GLA's Housing and Land Directorate. We are looking for a Senior Programme Co-ordinator to join our Programme Team and work on all aspects of programme management for affordable housing programmes within the Mayor's housing and land portfolio.
