Notice Title

Provision of an Interim Assistant Director of Property Services

Notice Description

The Council intends to award a contract extension to Tile Hill for the continued provision of interim Assistant Director of Property Services support until 31st March 2026. This decision is driven by the need to ensure continuity in the role to maintain strategic oversight during a period of significant organisational change and delivery risk.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The supply of a interim Assistant Director of Property. The current Assistant Director of Property is a well-established and critical member of the Housing Senior Leadership Team (HSLT). Whilst the focus of the role has evolved to reflect current organisational priorities, the requirement for senior programme leadership, oversight and delivery assurance across a portfolio of high-risk and strategically significant activity remains. Continuity in this role is essential to maintain strategic oversight during a period of significant organisational change and delivery risk.

Procurement Information

The current Assistant Director of Property is a well-established and critical member of the Housing Senior Leadership Team (HSLT). Whilst the focus of the role has evolved to reflect current organisational priorities, the requirement for senior programme leadership, oversight and delivery assurance across a portfolio of high-risk and strategically significant activity remains. Continuity in this role is essential to maintain strategic oversight during a period of significant organisational change and delivery risk. Despite national recruitment campaigns, no suitable permanent candidates were identified. The local government market remains highly constrained due to sector-wide uncertainty following the Devolution White Paper. The Council has therefore determined that extending the current interim arrangement is the only viable option to maintain service stability and mitigate significant operational and reputational risks.
