About The Employer

They are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture. Their ambition is for the communities they are anchored in and exist to serve, and they have done and achieved much over the past few years. But in these challenging times, they know they'll achieve nothing unless they are equally ambitious for their own people. Their values are at the heart of who they are and everything they do, inspiring their thinking and guiding their actions. They strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring and be their best self to work.

Staff Benefits

  • 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years’ service)
  • Eye care vouchers
  • A cycle to work scheme
  • Other great benefits

They have an evolving wellbeing offer that is being developed following employee feedback, and they will invest in your professional development with ongoing training and career development opportunities.

The organisation can’t be a brilliant landlord if they don’t partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them? If this sounds exciting, they want you on their team. Please do submit a completed application.

Inclusion and Diversity

The employer wants the organisation to be a great place to work and to ensure that their communities are represented across their workforce. A vital part of this is ensuring they are a truly inclusive organisation that encourages diversity in all respects, including diversity of thinking. They particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and those of Other Ethnicities, LGBTQ+, disabled and neurodiverse communities to make a real difference to their residents so that passionate commitment to customers, respect for everyone, pride in the team and trusted to make the difference remains at the heart of everything they do.
