Eildon Executive Team

I joined Eildon as Chief Executive in April 2010 having previously undertaken a number of senior roles in the Scottish Government.

In my role as Chief Executive at Eildon Housing Association I currently lead a staff team of 130 people working across a range of housing, care and support services. I am responsible for the day to day operation of the business and report to a Board of Management who oversee the strategic direction of the Association. I have recently completed six years on the Board of the Scottish Federation of Housing Associations, serving five of these as Vice Chairman.

I have a BA(Hons) in Economics, a MPhil in Urban Policy. I am a Chartered member of the Chartered Institute of Housing.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, travelling and trying to improve my golf.

In my spare time my main interest is rugby and I am either the treasurer or auditor for a number of local charitable organisations.

In my spare time, I love catching up with friends and family who are now spread far and wide, walking and appreciating the Scottish Borders, and new holiday adventures (ideally with a bit of sun)!

I joined Eildon in November 2020.  I was formerly Better Neighbourhoods Programme Manager at Tower Hamlets Homes in London and decided to make the move north to the beautiful Scottish Borders along with my family, to take up the post of Director of Property Assets.

I’ve worked in the housing sector my whole career (with one exception when I worked on a large infrastructure project) for housing associations, local authorities and commercial consultancy practices. My previous post at Tower Hamlets Homes involved developing their investment programme and launching a brand new framework.

In my spare time I enjoy walking my dog, exploring with my daughter and I have a keen interest in photography.
