He is also Deputy Director of the UNSW/UWS AHURI Research Centre. For the previous six years he was Director of the Urban Frontiers Program at the University of Western Sydney. At UNSW he leads a research team specializing in housing policy, urban development and metropolitan planning policy issues. Bill has 30 years experience as a researcher on housing and urban policy issues in the academic, government, non-government and private sectors. Immediately prior to his appointment at UWS, Bill spent five years in market research and consultancy based in London, UK, with a primary focus on housing and urban research for the central and local government sectors. He had previously spent eight years as Head of Research at the National Housing Federation in London, the national peak body for non-profit affordable housing landlords, where he led the development of national research into affordable housing provision.
