Centrepoint

• Retail

• Head of Development (self-employed)

  • Dec 2008 - Jan 2011

  During my time here, I developed a strategy which secured a five-year development programme of £5m annually in east London, and an allocation of £8m within two years, providing 30-40 homes a year, including funding in the north east of England. This required liaison with various agencies and public funded bodies, in order to implement effective project management, programme and budgetary controls. As a result, headcount in my team increased, as did my general management responsibilities. Part of my role included sensitive planning applications for young people’s supported housing schemes, which required liaison and consultation with planning officers, ward members, and the relevant local communities.
