Peabody Chief Executive To Step Down

Construction News Image
The Chief Executive of Peabody housing association is to step down.

Brendan Sarsfield is to step down from the role in summer 2021.

Brandan took charge in July 2017 following the merger of Peabody and Family Mosaic and successfully led the integration and amalgamation of the two organisations. His 20 years as a Chief Executive demonstrate a strong track record of championing social purpose and delivering more social housing for those most in need.

Peabody will now start the search for a new Chief Executive to take the 158-year-old organisation forward.

Peabody Chairman Lord Kerslake said: "It has been a great pleasure working with Brendan over the last few years. Under his leadership, we have prioritised social rented homes at low rents for people in need. We’ve highlighted the challenges our customers face, making the case for a fairer social security system and better pay for people on low incomes. We’ve expanded our care and support offer and we’ve made great progress in modernising services, building quality homes and improving neighbourhoods through challenging times. His commitment to our social purpose and Peabody has been highly effective, and I wish him all the very best for the future."
