**About settle**:We’re settle, a friendly and customer-focused housing association based in Letchworth Garden City. Working in communities across Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and South Cambridgeshire, we provide nearly 10,000 households with a place to call home.
Our purpose is to help people who are struggling to find a place to live. We help our customers to stay in their homes comfortably so they can live the life they choose. settle is a team of around 300 colleagues with a wide range of experience working in the housing sector and beyond. What connects us is our passion for social housing and the power it has to transform people's lives.
We are made up of lots of different teams, from frontline roles in trades, customer services and housing to office-based teams such as IT, Communications, Finance and HR. We also have a whole development team dedicated to building new, good quality, affordable homes. Wherever we sit in the business and whatever our role, we’re all working towards the same shared purpose.
We’re not just a landlord, we’re a social landlord. To us this means that delivering brilliant services is only the beginning. Our relationship with customers goes beyond a tenancy agreement, our role in the community beyond that of a housing provider. We’re always thinking about what more we can do to help improve life outcomes for residents and support neighbourhoods to thrive. This social purpose is our enduring reason for being - without it, we wouldn’t be settle.
**Why work with us?**
There is something special about working at settle. It’s in the values that shape us and the people that make us - us settle is a community of friendly faces guaranteed to make your day a little brighter - whether you’re catching up with colleagues at the coffee machine, having a team meeting in one of our breakout spaces or playing a quick game of ping pong over lunch.
We care a lot about the work we do, but also how we do it. This means that in every corner of the business, you’ll find a similar feeling - a certain way of embracing new ideas, of making decisions, of working together. It’s because in everything we do we are guided by our values. We call it doing things the settle way.
One third of your life is spent at work so we want it to be time well spent. That’s why we invest a lot in the colleague experience, from health and wellbeing support to career opportunities, work-life balance and more. We want you to enjoy the chapter of your life that you spend with us at settle, and whatever that path looks like - whether it’s dedicating 30 years to our repairs team or joining us as a housing apprentice in your first job out of school - we’re here to help you along the way. And we believe that when you get something good out of coming to work, residents and communities will benefit too.
We’re also passionate about making sure our colleagues feel a sense of belonging at settle and play their part in shaping how we do things. We have three colleague groups that everyone can get involved in, including one dedicated to championing diversity and inclusion, and another committed to promoting colleague health and wellbeing.
