Are you looking to build a career in Finance and work for a commercially focused organisation with a social purpose?

Our mission is to build affordable homes and sustainable communities where people choose to live. We provide housing, care, and support to more than a quarter of a million customers in England and Scotland, with a turnover of over £1bn, annual operating surplus of over £250 million and employing over 14,000 people. This includes managing and maintaining much needed social and affordable housing, as well as playing our part in tackling the national housing crisis by building good quality affordable homes.

Our Finance teams work within areas including Finance Transformation, Financial Planning, Treasury, Taxation, Procurement and Financial Reporting. If your interest lies within the Finance sector, we can offer the unique opportunity to rotate around these different teams and expanding your skills, before choosing a specialism and potentially moving into your Finance qualification following the end of the two-year programme.
