Head of Supported Housing Regulation – 18 Moths Fixed Term Contract

Are you ready to shape the future of supported housing in Ealing? This is a high-impact and strategic role at the heart of a rapidly evolving agenda, offering a unique opportunity to influence systems, improve quality, and deliver better outcomes for some of the brough’s most vulnerable residents.

The role has been created to ensure that the Council fully complies with its duties under the Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023 to tackle poor quality exempt accommodation to ensure that residents receive the necessary care and support.

As the Head of Supported Housing Regulation, you will play the central role in developing and delivering Ealing’s Supported Housing Strategy. Working closely with colleagues across the whole Council, you will lead on shaping a complex and dynamic system, bringing together partners, providers and stakeholders to ensure a coherent, high-quality offer across the borough.

This is a role that combines strategic thinking with practical delivery. You will influence how services are designed, commissioned and monitored, while ensuring that standards are upheld and that provision meets both local need and national expectations. You will also be responsible for designing and building the necessary resources, capacity and partnerships to work with providers to improve the quality of supported housing provision in scope.

You will lead the development and implementation of the Supported Housing Strategy using robust data, insight and market intelligence to shape services and drive improvement. You will work collaboratively with a wide range of partners, including the NHS, Police, and voluntary sector organisations, to ensure a joined-up approach to supported housing across Ealing.

Suitable candidates will bring experience of working in housing, commissioning, adult social care and/or a related strategic environment, with a strong understanding of supported housing systems and regulatory frameworks. You will be comfortable operating at both a strategic and operational level and be able to translate complex data into clear plans and actions.

Strong partnership working skills are essential, as is the ability to influence, negotiate and build relationships across organisational boundaries. You will be confident leading projects, managing competing priorities and driving change in a complex environment.

Above all, you will be motivated by the opportunity to make a difference, using your skills and experience to improve quality, strengthen the market and deliver better outcomes for residents.

This role is subject to enhanced vetting check.

You must have the right to work in the UK. Evidence for the right to work in the UK will be requested at the interview stage.

Ealing Council is committed to creating good jobs and delivering on its connected communities’ agenda. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive.

We therefore welcome applications from all residents of the borough, we particularly welcome applications from candidates who are entering the employment market in the early stages of their career and mid-career professionals, who are currently underrepresented in Ealing’s workforce.

Please note all applications will be determined on merit.

It is an exciting time to join us, here at Ealing Council. If you would like to make a positive difference to our residents and borough, then we’re looking forward to hearing from you.

Closing date for applications: Thursday 16 July 2026
