TIS is seeking a dynamic and values-driven individual to step into the role of CEO.

The Tenants Information Service (TIS) - a national charity leading tenant participation, community development, and engagement practices, is seeking a dynamic and values-driven individual to step into the role of CEO.

This is a rare opportunity for an inspiring leader with a passion for social justice to champion tenant engagement and ensure it remains at the forefront of the national housing agenda.

As a membership organisation, TIS is proud to represent over 255,000 homes across Scotland through its tenant and housing organisation membership community. Members share the same values of finding creative solutions to encourage tenants and housing organisations to work together and effect positive change.

With a strong foundation and fantastic reputation, TIS is now looking for a CEO to lead the next chapter of growth and innovation. Along with delivery contracts to our customers, the CEO will be responsible for the strategic, financial, and operational leadership of TIS, reporting directly to the Board of Directors.

Working with a dedicated development team to deliver tenant participation, scrutiny and community development contracts across Scotland.

Develop and deliver the organisation’s strategic plan to achieve its mission, vision, and strategic objectives.

Driving the strategic direction of TIS while ensuring the organisation’s activities align with its core values of integrity, excellence, partnership, innovation, independence, and empowerment.

Developing and overseeing budgets, tenders, and funding streams to ensure the organisation’s long‑term viability.

Representing TIS at a local and national level, working closely with government bodies, housing regulators, and key stakeholders to influence housing policy and legislation.

Leading a dedicated team of professionals and associates, fostering a culture of empowerment, and delivering continuous service improvement.

Enhancing member services and driving the organisation’s marketing, digital and engagement strategies.

At least five years in a senior management role within housing, tenant participation, or community development, with a proven track record in strategic and operational leadership and community development.

Exceptional communication, negotiation, and leadership skills, coupled with a deep understanding of the social housing sector, financial management, community development and governance best practices.

A commitment to tenant empowerment, social justice, and innovation, underpinned by a collaborative and inclusive approach.

You will work alongside a passionate and skilled team, supported by a dedicated Board, to shape Scotland’s housing landscape for the better. If you are ready to embrace this challenge and are excited by the opportunity to lead and inspire a progressive organisation with a strong social purpose, we would love to hear from you.
