About Will

Since joining Altair in 2019, Will has supported clients across a range of management consulting services including governance, regulation, strategy, and research. The types of organisations Will has worked with include housing associations, local authorities, housing representative bodies, charities and national regulators.

Will’s recent experience includes a review of a local authority’s rightsizing offer, a review of the private rented sector (PRS) across two neighbouring local authority areas, a review of a Welsh housing association’s stakeholder engagement and an appraisal of temporary accommodation delivery options for a local authority.

As part of these reviews, Will undertook qualitative research such as survey design, survey analysis, interviews and workshops with a range of stakeholders such as PRS and social housing residents, Council officers, HA officers, local charities, PRS regulatory services and Citizens Advice representatives.

Most recently, Will worked on a review of the Scottish Regulatory Framework on behalf of the Scottish Federation of Housing Associations. The findings of the review were presented to the Scottish Housing Regulator and will inform the federation body’s response to the regulator’s consultation on the regulatory framework later in 2023.
