Housing Sector Insights Roffey Park 2025: Building a Resilient Future is an essential examination of the UK housing and construction sector at a critical juncture in 2025.
In an environment driven by the Labour government’s commitment of over £39 billion to social and affordable housing and the national target of 1.5 million new homes by 2030, this paper argues that operational resilience is paramount. It highlights the simultaneous deep-rooted challenges, including skills shortages, supply chain pressures and slow planning approvals, that require a new approach to leadership. The paper details the demand for leaders who are agile, resilient, and possess strong financial acumen to balance community needs with fiscal realities.
Blending sector analysis with Roffey Park’s expertise, the paper provides a grounded example of success through a case study with Metropolitan Thames Valley Housing (MTVH). This showcases how a targeted Leadership Development Programme supports succession planning and moves high-potential employees into Director roles, demonstrating a practical path to scaling capacity and strengthening leadership.
