Where dedicated and compassionate professionals bring everything to their work. Take Kate, an absolute wizard at managing housing asset data for our annual GBP 50m capital programme. Kate's an inspiration to her team. Now a senior manager, she first joined as a college leaver in finance. Through Westminster's encouragement, as well as her own hard work and determination, she's gained professional qualifications and taken on a series of increasingly stretching roles. Today, we depend on Kate's analytical powers to keep track of the condition of over 21,000 of our tenanted and leasehold homes : from roofs and windows to kitchens and bathrooms. Kate's committed to achieving the Decent Homes Standard for all our tenants and a high standard for all our leaseholders. Her passion is numbers but, because she grew up in social housing, she also understands the human stories behind the data. More than that she understands the disruption renewal work entails. So, when an elderly resident's family mentioned that their mother needed not just a new kitchen, but adaptations to her bathroom, Kate got right on to it. She co:ordinated with colleagues to assess the resident's disability needs. Kate's worked hard to ensure our routine external and internal stock condition surveys pick up on repairs and health and safety issues at the same time. And, by recognising patterns in the data that's gathered, she makes a vital contribution to forward planning for large:scale capital renewal works.
