We want to attract and employ people who can deliver excellent services to our customers and we see our people as the key to our success. We're a small, dedicated, friendly and compassionate organisation which invests in our people by offering learning and continuous development opportunities. As part of the RHP Group we are holders of IIP (Investors in People).
If you work or have thought about working in Housing but want to try something a bit different, why not come and work with us supporting small voluntary run housing co-ops? All the co-ops we provide management services for have their own identity and a strong sense of why they exist as a co-op.
Whichever team you work in at Co-op Homes, be it Housing, Finance, Governance or Repairs & Operations, you'll be there to support co-ops and each other to deliver services to residents and work with management committees to deliver an excellent bespoke customer service.
