Sustainability Manager Location: London (Hybrid Working) Salary: £72,000 Contract: Permanent Social housing is under increasing pressure to reduce carbon emissions, improve energy efficiency, and deliver warmer, more affordable homes for residents. At the same time, funding requirements, new regulations, and ageing heat networks mean there's no single solution. This role exists because those programmes need someone to bring them together. You'll lead the organisation's retrofit, decarbonisation, and sustainability strategy, ensuring investment is targeted where it has the greatest impact. Alongside this, you'll take ownership of communal and district heat networks, helping shape how they perform today while planning how they'll evolve over the next decade. This isn't simply a programme management role. It's about influencing long-term investment decisions, securing funding, and ensuring sustainability becomes part of every asset management decision the organisation makes. Sustainability, resident wellbeing, and long-term asset performance sit at the heart of the organisation's investment strategy. Significant investment is being made in retrofit, energy efficiency, and low-carbon infrastructure, making this an excellent opportunity to shape programmes that will have a lasting impact on both residents and the wider environment. What You'll Actually Be Doing You'll lead the delivery of retrofit and decarbonisation programmes across a large residential housing portfolio, working closely with colleagues across Asset Management, Compliance, Building Safety, Repairs, Finance, and Housing Management. A significant part of your role will focus on improving the performance of communal and district heat networks. You'll work with technical specialists to understand where systems are underperforming, identify opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, and make heating more reliable and affordable for residents. You'll oversee retrofit programmes including insulation, low-carbon heating systems, renewable technologies, and wider energy efficiency improvements, ensuring projects are delivered in line with PAS 2035, funding requirements, and building regulations. Securing external funding will also be a key part of the role. Whether it's SHDF, ECO, HNES or future decarbonisation funding streams, you'll help identify opportunities, develop bids, and ensure projects remain compliant throughout delivery. Alongside programme delivery, you'll provide strategic advice to senior leaders, using performance data, carbon reporting, EPC information, and heat network performance to help shape future investment plans. About You This role will suit someone who enjoys balancing strategy with delivery. You'll already have experience leading retrofit, sustainability, energy efficiency, or decarbonisation programmes within social housing, local government, or a similarly regulated property environment. You'll understand the practical challenges of delivering PAS 2035 retrofit projects, working with consultants and contractors, managing funding requirements, and translating policy into deliverable investment programmes. Experience working with communal or district heat networks would be highly advantageous, as would knowledge of heat network regulations and low-carbon heating technologies. You'll also be comfortable working across multiple teams, influencing senior stakeholders, analysing technical data, and turning complex information into practical investment decisions. Interested? If you've been leading retrofit, sustainability, or decarbonisation programmes and are looking for a role where you can influence long-term strategy as well as programme delivery, I'd be happy to arrange a confidential conversation. And if this particular opportunity isn't quite right, it's still worth getting in touch. Panoramic Associates works exclusively across Housing, Asset Management, Building Safety, Compliance, Sustainability, and Property Services, supporting both interim and permanent appointments across the UK.
