Julie McKinnon

Board Member Joined Mar 2024

I hold a degree in Business Studies and an MSc in Construction Project Management, which I completed as a mature student. My background is in maintenance, asset management, and affordable housing supply, with over 20 years' experience, mostly within Scottish Registered Social Landlords and Local Authorities. 

I bring in-depth expertise in property, development, construction, sustainability, and project management, with a strong focus on quality standards. I’m also skilled in long-term strategic planning to support future growth and adaptability.  

I joined the Board because I’ve long admired KHA as a forward-thinking and proactive organisation. I believe in its values and want to contribute my experience while continuing to grow and develop my own knowledge within social housing. 

Over the next few years, I hope to support the organisation’s strategic direction and help expand access to warm, affordable housing and community services. 

Away from the boardroom, we have a beautiful Romanian rescue dog. She’s a mischievous little character and definitely keeps us on our toes.
