Notting Hill Genesis (NHG) has seen a second long-serving executive leave in the space of two months, with the exit of its chief technology officer.
Rajiv Peter stepped down from the executive role at the 67,500-home landlord last month, an NHG spokesperson confirmed to Social Housing.
Mr Peter had been in the newly created post of chief technology officer at the G15 landlord since March 2022.
Prior to that he had spent four years with NHG, mostly as its director of digital technology.
An NHG spokesperson said Mr Peter had left to “explore new opportunities”.
According to his LinkedIn profile, he is now a director at Yantra Works. The tech firm was established last month and Mr Peter is the owner and sole director, according to Companies House records.
NHG has appointed former Home Group CIO Keith Woolley as its interim chief technology officer, the spokesperson said.
Mr Peter’s exit from NHG follows that of Vipul Thacker in December. Mr Thacker had spent around a year as the group’s chief organisational effectiveness officer, which was also a newly created role.
Mr Thacker worked for NHG for around 15 years, including nearly seven years at its predecessor entity Genesis Housing Association.
NHG has seen a wave of senior changes in the last two years, including the recruitment of its first chief governance and risk officer and the departure of its long-serving deputy chief executive John Hughes.
The landlord currently has C3/G3/V2 grades with the Regulator of Social Housing.
It received its first consumer grade in November 2024, but was judged to have “serious failings”. It was downgraded for governance in the same month.
Last April, NHG announced it had agreed a plan with the regulator to regain compliance.
In its last full-year update to the end of March 2025, NHG recorded a widening of its annual deficit to £129m.
