Careers
At Housing 21 we don’t believe you should have to choose between a thriving career and a busy home life; we think it’s important our employees can enjoy both. Which is why we are just as committed to employee wellbeing as we are to improving the lives of our residents.
Whether you are based in one of our Extra Care, Retirement Living or Corporate Teams, you will be supporting our residents to live happy and independent lives. In return, we will help you to be the best you can be through continued learning and development while you’re at work, and a range of benefits for you to enjoy when you’re not.
