About Our Client

Soho Housing has been part of central London's social fabric for decades, providing genuinely affordable, high-quality homes in one of the capital's most dynamic and diverse neighbourhoods. Alongside their residential homes, they also manage an important commercial property portfolio that helps them to sustain their long-term mission.

As they plan for Board succession, they're seeking a new Chair of the Audit & Risk Committee to help guide them through a period of strategic change and opportunity.

  • Lead the Committee in overseeing financial reporting, audit processes, and risk management
  • Provide assurance on the integrity of financial information and internal controls
  • Support the Board in maintaining regulatory compliance and financial resilience
  • Help shape risk appetite and ensure effective mitigation strategies
  • Bring an independent, analytical perspective to complex decisions
  • Champion transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement

The Successful Applicant

We're looking for someone who:

  • Has senior-level experience in finance, audit, or risk (e.g. as a CFO, auditor, or NED)
  • Understands the regulatory and operational context of housing or similar sectors
  • Able to communicate complex financial matters clearly and constructively
  • Shares our values of inclusion, community, and integrity
  • Committed to high-quality governance and resident-focused outcomes

This is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful impact in one of London's most iconic neighbourhoods. If you're ready to bring your expertise to a purpose-driven organisation with a strong sense of place, please do make contact to discuss the role in more detail.
