About the Role

Since its establishment in 2016, HFS has grown into a trusted and commercially successful organisation, employing over 115 colleagues.
Working closely with River Clyde Homes, HFS plays a vital role in ensuring customers receive safe, well-maintained homes and excellent services while supporting the wider Group’s long-term ambitions.

- Leading financial and resource management, business transformation, and performance against targets to deliver sustainable growth, commercial viability, and long-term value.
- Championing high-quality customer-centric service design and delivery.
- Developing a positive, high-performing culture where colleagues are engaged, supported, and empowered to succeed, promoting wellbeing, development, and continuous improvement.
- Building strong internal and external relationships with the Board, Executive Leadership Team, customers, contractors, and external partners, while identifying opportunities for business development and strategic partnerships.
