At Ocean Housing, we're committed to providing great homes and services that make a positive difference to our customers and communities. We're now looking for an ambitious and analytical Performance & Insight Manager to help us turn data into meaningful insight, ensuring our decisions are informed, our services continually improve, and our customers remain at the heart of everything we do.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives on transforming complex information into clear, compelling stories that influence strategy, drive improvement and strengthen governance.

About the role:

Reporting to the Head of Standards & Performance, you'll lead the development and management of our corporate performance framework, ensuring the organisation has robust, reliable and accessible insight to support decision-making at every level.

You'll work closely with senior leaders, managers, Board members and ICT colleagues to:

• Develop and deliver engaging performance reports, dashboards and visualisations.
• Interpret performance data and identify trends, opportunities, emerging risks and areas for improvement.
• Maintain KPI frameworks, targets, reporting standards and data dictionaries.
• Support governance, assurance and regulatory reporting activities.
• Present performance insights confidently to senior stakeholders and governance forums.
• Provide independent, evidence-based challenge and recommendations that support informed decision-making.

This role isn't about data engineering or system administration. It's about using validated information to create insight, tell the story behind the performance, and help the organisation deliver better outcomes for customers.

About you:

We're looking for a highly analytical professional who can confidently interpret complex information and communicate it in a way that drives action.

You'll bring:

• Experience producing and presenting performance reports, dashboards and management information.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to identify trends, root causes and emerging risks.
• Experience managing KPI frameworks, reporting standards and performance measures.
• The ability to translate complex data into clear, engaging visualisations and narratives.
• Excellent stakeholder management skills and the confidence to work with senior leaders, Boards and committees.
• Experience supporting governance, assurance, audit or regulatory reporting activities.
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft 365 applications, particularly Power BI, Excel, Word and PowerPoint.
• Level 5 qualification or equivalent experience in performance management, business intelligence, governance, risk, assurance or a related discipline.

Ideally, you'll also have experience within social housing or another regulated customer-focused environment and an understanding of housing regulation, Consumer Standards or Tenant Satisfaction Measures.
