Mark Jones has been appointed as Chair of the Board at Rykneld Homes.
With 40 years of experience in the social housing sector, Mark also brings extensive senior leadership and service transformation experience plus his operational knowledge as Executive Director at Acis Group.
“Rykneld Homes is clearly committed to providing safe, high-quality homes and services to residents,” Mark said.
“Rykneld Homes does more than just providing decent homes, it provides places where people want to live, building communities and encouraging pride in place.”
“I am really looking forward to taking on this role at such a pivotal time, using my experience to act as a sounding board, critical friend and ambassador and contribute towards making North East Derbyshire a great place to live.”
Mark joins at an exciting time for Rykneld with a new five-year contract with North East Derbyshire District council starting in April, as well as a range of new partnerships recently agreed and an ambitious plan for delivering more new homes and retrofit programmes.
Managing Director Niall Clark said: “Mark’s experience will be invaluable to the ongoing development of the organisation, but also as we prepare for the opportunities and challenges that local government reorganisation will present.
“We’re all looking forward to working with Mark and welcome him to Rykneld Homes.”
