About us
We're Abri, a housing association based in the south of England. One of the largest in fact. We've got 35,000 homes and 1,500 colleagues.

And if all our 80,000 residents lived in the same place, we'd have a town roughly the size of Guildford.

We're a passionate bunch. We think we can make a real difference. Homelessness, poverty, inequality, a lack of affordable housing. They're all linked. They're issues that affect so many, young and old alike. And we don't think that's right. We want to give people the chance to dream big and be who they want to be. Homes are at the heart of everybody's lives. And we exist to help make good homes, and good lives a reality for everyone.

About you
We've all got different backgrounds, strengths and experiences. But we share the same values. It's these shared values that bring us together as one team.

Our colleagues embrace these every day.

Be the difference to our customers and colleagues, always curious and look for better solutions, achieve together by working in partnership with others, own it openly through working with others in an open and honest way, and finally embrace possibility and see changes and challenges as welcomed opportunities.

If you share our values and w
