I have watched us evolve to become the trail blazers we are today. This has cascaded to the workforce making everyone proud to be part of the organisation
I started as an apprentice and have been able to progress through the business. Being involved in innovation and being able to improve the business gives me a real buzz that I honestly can’t describe. The vision of what the organisation should be has made a very big impact on the way everyone works and the culture which very unique for the housing sector. Since day one I have loved my job and I honestly never want to leave.
