Scott Langford (pictured above) has officially started his role as CEO of Housing Australia.
Langford’s leadership begins at a critical juncture, following the recent announcement of an initial pipeline of 185 projects that could deliver more than 13,700 social and affordable homes under the federal government’s Housing Australia Future Fund and National Housing Accord.
Carol Austin, chair of Housing Australia, expressed her enthusiasm for Langford’s appointment.
“We’re excited to have Scott join us as we ramp up activity, together with partners, to enable more Australians to buy a home sooner and increase the supply of social and affordable housing,” Austin said.

He also recognised the foundational work of his predecessor, Nathan Dal Bon, thanking him for his dedication to improving housing outcomes in Australia.
Langford brings a wealth of experience, having previously served in leadership roles at SGCH, PowerHousing Australia, and the Community Housing Industry Council.
