Current vacancies

Policy Lead

  • Full time
  • £47,188
  • Hybrid: Glasgow
  • Closing 10th February 2025

SFHA is the membership body for, and collective voice of, housing associations and co operatives in Scotland. Our members collectively provide safe, warm affordable rented homes for around half a million people. We exist to represent, support and connect our members.

We are now looking for a Policy Lead to help us understand the issues our members are facing and work to find solutions. Although you’ll work flexibly across policy areas where needed, you’ll have a particular focus on issues around developing new homes, and building safety and maintenance, and are likely to have experience in one or both of these areas.

Working closely with colleagues across the organisation, you’ll organise our engagement with members in these areas, develop policy, create reports, briefings and consultation responses, represent SFHA externally and build strong relationships with our members.

Scotland is facing a housing emergency, and our members are a crucial part of tackling it. This is a fantastic opportunity to take on a job that really matters.

We offer excellent terms and conditions, including strong support for training and development.
