The Rural Services Network (RSN) is keen to highlight an excellent career opportunity that strongly supports our mission to support the delivery of rural affordable housing. We work closely at a national level with Action with Communities in Rural England (ACRE), who are looking for a dedicated individual to take on the role of Programme Manager for their Rural Housing Enabler Programme.
ACRE are seeking an experienced programme manager to continue the delivery of a programme of Rural Housing Enablers (RHEs) across England. RHEs are professionals attached to members of the ACRE Network who help communities to address their need for affordable housing locally and who broker relationships with planners, landowners, and developers to identify suitable sites for development.
The Programme was launched in 2023, and the successful candidate will build on the work of the last eighteen months, operating predominantly at a national level, and focusing on the overall management and delivery of the programme and on its longer-term development.
We encourage our members to either apply or spread the word among qualified candidates within their networks. This is more than a job - it's a chance to make a significant impact in the lives of rural communities, advocating for and developing housing solutions that are both sustainable and needed.
