BRE Group is looking for a new Chief Executive Officer to lead the organisation into a fresh era. As the built environment sector continues to change, particularly with sustainability and digital increasingly high on the agenda, BRE finds itself at a consequential and exciting crossroads.

BRE’s history stretches back over 100 years and in that time, it has evolved into a world-leading organisation with a mission to solve built environment challenges. Responsibility – amongst ourselves, towards our customers and to wider society – is at the heart of our purpose.

Our outgoing CEO, Gillian Charlesworth, leaves BRE Group in a strong position, having navigated the Covid-19 pandemic and other headwinds, and there is a firm foundation on which you will be able to build. With a new strategy agreed BRE is facing a significant transition point, and we are looking for an ambitious CEO to shape a future that might be different to our past. Governed by a non-profit trust, we strike a balance of purpose and profit, with profits reinvested for the good of the sector. As such, we need to remain innovative and commercially sharp.

Our CEO will also lead our Executive Team, creating the conditions for them to thrive and making sure that BRE is a fully integrated, financially sustainable organisation. Crucially, you will be a steward of our culture, ensuring that as we evolve and grow, we are an inclusive, participatory, welcoming place to work that encourages ambition and passion.

This is a really exciting time to join BRE, with appetite and energy to drive progress for the built environment. Perhaps most importantly, we are looking for a CEO to share our passion and relentlessly champion our vision and mission.
