Yorkshire Housing Finance plc - new Chief Executive

Nick Atkin has been appointed as the new group chief executive to lead Yorkshire Housing into a new period of growth and transformation.

He is currently group chief executive of Halton Housing and takes over from Mervyn Jones who is retiring at the end of December after delivering ten years of continued growth.

Nick, who hails from Doncaster, said: "Yorkshire Housing has a strong reputation for delivering homes and the quality of its services. The transformation programme will revolutionise how the organisation works as well as enhancing the services customers receive. I'm delighted to play my part in that success story and to also be returning to my Yorkshire roots."

Yorkshire Housing board chair Will Lifford said: "It's great to have Nick on board. He has a great track record having grown the business significantly at Halton and transforming its customer services through the use of digital technology, so that 90 per cent of customer-generated transactions are now delivered online.

"With our own transformation programme and our ambitious new homes programme, he's joining us at an exciting time."

Prior to Halton, Nick worked for the Audit Commission's housing inspectorate and has worked at a senior level in several regional and national housing associations. He is a non-executive director and vice chair of Warrington Clinical Commissioning Group.

Nick takes up his new role in early 2019.
