Message from Susanne Afra,
Chief of Asset Strategy and Major Works
I joined Westminster in November 2025 because I saw a rare opportunity to help shape something truly meaningful for our residents. Homes and services that work for residents – shaped with them, delivered for them. Doing the basics brilliantly, and setting the standard for how councils listen, act and deliver.
As Chief of Asset Strategy and Major Works, I’m responsible for setting the long-term direction for our housing stock and overseeing the delivery of our Housing Capital Programme. It’s a role that brings together strategy, investment and service improvement, but at its heart, it’s about building safer, better and more sustainable homes for the people who depend on us.
Over the next decade, Westminster will invest more than £1 billion to improve the safety, quality and energy efficiency of our homes. From 2025 to 2030 alone, over £445 million is committed through our capital works programme. This is one of the most significant housing investment programmes in London, and it reflects our belief that every role, every decision and every pound spent must improve outcomes for residents.
If you join our Asset Strategy or Major Works teams, you’ll help deliver meaningful change at scale and create homes and neighbourhoods our residents can be proud of. You’ll work alongside talented colleagues, experienced leaders and a leadership team who are committed to helping you grow, develop and make your mark.
We’re looking for people who want to make a difference in a challenging and rewarding environment, who are motivated by public service, and who believe – as we do – that residents deserve the best. If that sounds like you, I hope you’ll explore the roles available and consider joining us.
