Thames Valley Housing Association (TVHA), trading as MTVH, announces appointment of a new CEO

Thames Valley Housing Association, trading as MTVH, is pleased to announce the appointment of Melbourne (Mel) Barrett as its new CEO. Mel will replace Geeta Nanda, OBE, who informed the MTVH Board in January of her intention to step down as CEO in Autumn 2024.

Mel joins MTVH from Nottingham City Council where he has been Chief Executive since September 2020.

Althea Efunshile, CBE, Chair of the TVHA Board commented: "In Mel we believe we have found someone with exceptional capability and character to build on what we have achieved so far at MTVH and lead us to the next phase of our growth.

He has decades of experience of leadership at scale and has achieved this across a range of the services that we manage. Throughout his career he has put people, place, homes and regeneration at the heart of his work and has demonstrated an entrepreneurial approach combined with social purpose.

We look forward to Mel taking up his new post in early September after a transition period with our current CEO."
