Ed Talks to James Tickell – Candid conversations about the UK social housing sector

Ed talks to someone he’s been very impressed with – James Tickell, Founding Partner of Campbell Tickell (https://www.campbelltickell.com/) 

Campbell Tickell is a multi-disciplinary management and recruitment consultancy focusing primarily on the public and not-for-profit sectors. Ed’s interaction with James has been on the property side with particular emphasis on Social Landlords and Housing Associations.

Established for over 20 years, they have worked with more than 900 organisations throughout the UK, Ireland and beyond, with central and local government, housing associations, care providers, sports and leisure bodies, charities, and commercial organisations such as housebuilders and developers, contractors and legal firms.

During this candid and insightful conversation, James leans into the social housing sector in detail. We learn more about how it works, is different from the PRS, challenges they face daily and how the more pressing issues post pandemic, Brexit, the Ukrainian invasion and even global warming are affecting social housing.

James tells it how it is – something you don’t often hear.

One thing shines through, when things get tough this sector pulls together.

The episode has been one of the most eye-opening and important conversations to date on EdTalks. We thank James for taking the time to share his knowledge.
