Become an Advisory Partner

Who we work with

Advisory Partners are organisations with sector-relevant expertise and a genuine commitment to supporting our members. They may already work directly with housing providers and public sector organisations, or they may be looking to build a stronger connection with the sector.

We welcome conversations with suppliers and specialists across a range of areas, including legal, digital and AI, communications and design, software, retrofit and climate resilience, real estate and professional services, housing consultancy, recruitment, finance, accountancy, tax and regeneration.

Why become an Advisory Partner?

Advisory Partnership gives suppliers and sector specialists a clear platform to share knowledge, strengthen relationships and support the work of the Northern Housing Consortium and NHC Procurement.

  • Build meaningful relationships with senior housing and procurement decision-makers.
  • Share your expertise and position your organisation as a trusted sector partner.
  • Connect your work to the NHC’s collective northern voice and NHC Procurement’s national procurement network.
  • Amplify your message through high-quality engagement, visibility and thought-leadership opportunities.
  • Contribute to better homes, stronger communities and improved outcomes for residents.

A partnership with purpose

NHC Procurement is part of the Northern Housing Consortium, a not-for-profit membership organisation working to represent, support and connect housing organisations. NHC Procurement helps members access trusted suppliers, compliant procurement solutions and expert support. By becoming an Advisory Partner, your organisation joins a collective effort to develop insight, influence and practical solutions that create better homes and places. This is more than a sponsorship package: it is an opportunity to contribute expertise, understand member priorities and support the sector’s future.
