Currently Director at Easthall Park Housing Co-operative in Glasgow, John Mc Morrow brings a wealth of experience from his 35 years in social housing. He was chosen by Melville's Board for his commitment to placing housing firmly at the heart of the community, mirroring Melville's own core values.
"I am delighted to be appointed as the new Chief Executive of Melville and look forward to starting work with everyone in the new year," said John. "I have been extremely impressed by all the work that Melville has already undertaken and it’s testimony to Andrew, the staff and Board as to how effective they have been. I am looking to build on the strong foundations that are in place as we continue to deliver excellent services for our tenants in what will be the most challenging times for our communities as they cope with the current pandemic and all the issues that this brings."
