Southern Housing
20 November 2024
Chief Financial Officer appointment in Summer 2025
Southern Housing has announced that Tom Paul, Executive Director Strategy and Change will succeed Sarah Smith as Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") in Summer 2025. Tom is well known to colleagues and stakeholders having joined AmicusHorizon, one of Southern Housing's predecessor organisations, as Treasury Director in 2012. Tom was promoted to Southern Housing's executive team in December 2022 with responsibility for treasury, integration and technology.
Paul Hackett, Southern Housing's Chief Executive, said: "I'm delighted that Tom will follow Sarah as Southern's next CFO, and I know he will build on Sarah's legacy of strong financial control and excellent stakeholder relations. His appointment allows for a smooth transition, with Sarah reducing her hours from May 2025 until our financial statements are signed off later in the year. Tom will become CFO designate in May and CFO on Sarah's retirement."
