Who are we?


We are the Government’s national housing agency. Our role is to accelerate the pace of housebuilding across the country, particularly in areas where there are the most serious affordability issues – meaning people are struggling to find homes.


We have the appetite, influence, expertise, and resources to drive positive market change and meet the Government’s ambition to deliver 300,000 new homes a year. We are using our land, influence, funds, and knowledge to increase the pace, scale and quality of new homes accelerating delivery in areas of greatest demand and helping create great places to live. Within the next few years, we will have invested over £27 billion across our programmes. To deliver against these aims we are building a different kind of public service - join us to help make this happen


What we offer...


We understand how important life is outside of work so, as well as competitive salary and 33 days annual leave, we are totally committed to flexible working. We will support you, wherever possible, so that you don’t miss out on what truly matters to you.


If you do ever need a little bit of extra help we have a great employee assistance programme, financial well-being support and access to loads of great discounts with leading high street names.


Our range of employee networks also inspire an inclusive culture and are there to support you to truly be yourself at work and play a key role in helping shape our future.


If you are a member of a professional body, we’ll pay for your membership and once you get your top of the range digital kit you’ll be good to go in one of our great offices (or at home!)
