Moxie People is partnering with a purpose-driven housing provider in South Wales, looking for an experienced Capital Works Programme Manager on a 6-month contract to support their Property Services team during a time of change.

Despite this being initially a temporary contract, this position has the potential to extend or lead to a permanent opportunity for the right person.

Following a major organisational merger, the capital investment and delivery function needs a steady hand to guide them, someone who can lead with empathy, align fragmented systems, and help the team complete a range of planned works and refurbishment projects that improve homes and communities.

What you'll be doing as the Capital Works Programme Manager:

You'll lead a multi-disciplinary team (project managers, surveyors, coordinators) to:

Deliver in-flight capital works programmes, from bathrooms and kitchens to major refurbishment schemes

Improve and align processes across legacy teams to ensure a consistent approach to delivery

Rebuild team confidence and embed a collaborative, people-first culture

Manage and strengthen relationships with contractors and internal stakeholders

Ensure compliance, value for money, and a great experience for residents

What success looks like (after 6 months):

Current planned investment projects are progressing smoothly

Teams are working cohesively

Residents are seeing real improvements in their homes

Morale and confidence are noticeably stronger across the capital delivery team

You'll fit this Capital Works Programme Manager role if you:

Have strong experience in capital programme management, planned investment, or property services within a housing association or local authority

Lead with a calm, coaching-led approach, especially in teams that've been through change

Know how to bring structure and clarity without heavy-handedness

Are confident managing contractors, budgets, and delivery milestones with a focus on social value and tenant satisfaction

You'll be supported throughout the process by Rich Thomas at Moxie People, who's leading the recruitment and can offer full briefings, honest insights, and quick feedback loops.
