New senior leadership strengthens services
David McNulty is our new Executive Director of Housing. He has responsibility for all housing associated services and developments delivered by the council. Fiona Lester has now been appointed as Director of Homes and Landlord Services, following a period in the role on an interim basis.
These roles give us strong, long-term leadership so that we can keep improving our housing services and make sure you are safe, secure and supported in your home.
David brings a wealth of experience to the council, joining from Harrow Council where he was Director of Housing, and before that held a senior housing role at Hammersmith and Fulham Council.
“One of the highlights of my recruitment process was being interviewed by the Resident and Community Panel and the Housing Scrutiny Panel members. It was great to meet you and to hear where we need to improve, and how we can better serve our communities.
“I hope this will be the first of many opportunities to meet residents as I spend time getting to know the fantastic, diverse and thriving neighbourhoods that make up Bristol.”
Having already worked closely with colleagues and residents in her role for some time, Fiona is delighted to continue the work she has already started – including her commitment to ensure the time you give sharing your experience is well spent.
“My top priority is supporting efforts to ensure your homes are safe, well maintained, and that the services you rely on work better every day. I am committed to strengthening the ways we listen to residents, improving our communication, and ensuring that your feedback leads to real and visible improvements.”
