NPT Homes, the organisation that has been set up specifically to take ownership and management of council housing in Neath Port Talbot following a positive ballot by tenants, have appointed their Chief Executive in readiness for their transfer, scheduled to take place early in 2011.
Linda Whittaker the former Director of Housing at the Welsh Assembly Government was chosen for the role from a shortlist of four candidates.
Linda, who has over 20 years experience of the housing sector in Wales is currently the stock transfer programme manager for NPTCBC.
She has been responsible for overseeing stock transfer process for some of the country’s largest authorities including RCT, Torfaen and Newport.
In addition Linda is currently an independent member of the board of RCT Homes, the organisation that Rhondda Cynon Taff CBC transferred its council housing to in December 2007.
Tenants, staff and Shadow Board members formed a Chief Executive Recruitment Group which put the candidates through their paces in an intensive interview process, before they made final presentations to the board.
Linda Whittaker Chief Executive designate of NPT Homes added: "It is a privilege to take on this new and exciting role at NPT Homes at a great time for housing in the Neath Port Talbot Borough.
I am looking forward to playing a major part in shaping its future and ensuring we are committed to our tenants, staff and local communities." |
