Join our team

At Platform Housing, people are at the heart of everything we do. We provide over 50,000 safe, affordable homes across the Midlands, but our role goes further than bricks and mortar. We’re here to create communities where people feel secure, connected and able to thrive.

A Platform for People

We know that strong communities start with strong foundations. That’s why we invest in our homes, our services and our people. Every colleague plays their part, whether it’s supporting customers, shaping strategy, or delivering front line services.

We’re shaping a culture where individuality is valued, where people work together, listen and learn. We’re open to new ideas, ready to challenge what doesn’t work and committed to doing the right thing.

A career here is more than you’d expect. It’s being part of one team, united by a clear purpose.

It’s somewhere you can feel at home while helping others find theirs.

We don’t just provide jobs. We provide a Platform for People.

A Platform We’re Proud of

Our values form the foundation of who we are and what we want to be. They bring us together, define how we support each other, and empower us to make a real impact.

Our values provide everyone here with:

A platform where People Matter We put colleagues and customers at the heart of all we do. Valuing difference, we are free to challenge each other and are open and honest in our relationships.

A platform for Owning It We say what we’ll do and then we do it. We listen, understand, and are empowered to make decisions. We look for our own ways to learn and adapt and focus on what we can do.

A platform where we’re One Team We are connected, collaborative and in it together. We want everyone to reach their potential and be the best they can be. We actively support each other to make this happen.

A platform where you can Be Brave We are curious and courageous. We look for better ways to do things, are comfortable trying them and learn quickly. We are not afraid to stand out from the rest and celebrate our success.

A Platform for Making a Difference

With around 2000 colleagues and over 120,000 customers, we are proud to be one of the largest housing associations in the Midlands. Our impact reaches across the country, with more than 50,000 homes.

From Herefordshire to the Lincolnshire coast, from the Derbyshire Dales to the Cotswolds, our work is shaping communities and improving lives.

Because we’re a not-for-profit, every penny we earn goes back into our communities — creating new homes, caring for the ones we already have, and making our local services even better

Here you will see the difference your work makes every day. Whether it’s helping someone settle into a safe, warm home, supporting someone to get back on their feet, or shaping new developments that transform communities. A career with us means being part of something bigger, creating places people are proud to call home.

It’s a Platform for making a difference.

A Platform for Belonging

We're shaping a culture where individuality is valued, support is tailored, and everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Belonging isn’t about treating everyone the same — it’s about equity and fairness. We recognise the barriers people face and work to remove them, so everyone can thrive and contribute their best.

We go beyond our legal duty to eliminate discrimination, advance equal opportunities, and foster good relations. It means listening and learning. Challenging barriers and reshaping practices. And celebrating differences as a strength that helps be better.

We simply don’t accept prejudice and intolerance, and take action when it’s needed. We don't stand for discrimination of any kind, either – this includes colleagues, partners, contractors, suppliers, customers, and people in the communities we support.

Diversity is an essential part of who we are. And we value that. Seeing and understanding differences is how we build a stronger organisation, where our colleagues can flourish. With colleague-led diversity groups, inclusive policies, and a family-friendly approach to flexible working, we are building a culture that is a Platform for Everyone.
