Jamie Curtis, Associate Executive Director Property

Jamie Curtis, Associate Executive Director Property

I lead the organisation’s property services functions such as repairs and maintenance, property investment, compliance to keep people safe, and our Westward Property Services (WPS) team. Since joining Westward in 2015, I have progressed through a range of property leadership roles, bringing together operational insight, asset management experience, and a proficiency of housing services.

Previously I spent 15 years at the London Borough of Havering, where I worked as a project manager delivering capital investment programmes and bespoke large-scale investment projects. During that time, I also gained experience in the housing management and human resources which gave me a broad understanding of people, customers and the communities we support.
