Careers

As an individual, you’re inspiring. Together, we’re extraordinary.

Find your perfect property

Care and housing for older people is our business. But it’s also our passion. 

Operating in 85% of local councils in England, with 54,000 homes as well as dedicated teams of business professionals working in our Bradford and London offices, more than 9,000 of us work towards the same goal: Transforming housing and care so everyone can have a home where they love living in later life.

Please note all applicants for our care opportunities must already hold the legal right to work in the UK. It is no longer a legal requirement for colleagues to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to work in our care homes. However, we will continue to encourage everyone who is eligible for the vaccine and booster dose to have it to protect themselves, as well as the residents and colleagues in our home.
