View Vacancy -- Regeneration Manager

Improving Tottenham housing estates is a key element of Haringey Council’s Strategic Regeneration Framework. Alongside this we are always looking for innovative ways to deliver new high quality homes for both existing and new residents.

In March 2017 DCLG awarded £32m of grant funding across 100 estates throughout the country. Haringey received the largest award, £2.371m.  The funding is specifically to assist Haringey to work alongside residents to look at suitable improvements including, where supported by residents, partial or full redevelopment options. Residents wants and wishes will be at the heart of shaping any proposals for their estates.

The money from the fund will be concentrated on working with residents on four of our estates:

• Northumberland Park

• Broadwater Farm

• Turner Avenue/Brunel Walk

• Reynardson Court

  We have already begun conversations with residents on all four estates about the future. This fund gives us an opportunity to step up that work. In particular we want to work with residents to:

• Increase employment opportunities

• Tackle social exclusion

• Empower residents to develop and deliver projects that they want to see on their estates

• Deliver physical improvements to the estates.

In order to deliver this, we need an experienced and enthusiastic regeneration manager.
