As the government&rsquo;s housing and regeneration agency, we create thriving new places and transform urban areas, combining the full breadth of our powers, expertise, land, capital and influence to bring investment to communities and get more homes built. 


How? We form long-term partnerships that bridge the gap between the public and private sector to meet local needs and aspirations. We use our influence to champion the creation of sustainable homes, communities and places that are brilliantly designed for the people that live there now, and in the future. And we use our funding and support to build a more resilient, diverse and innovative housing sector, helping new entrants in the market, encouraging modern methods of construction and design, and promoting the utmost attention to building safety. 


Together with our partners, we&rsquo;re accelerating the pace of house building, remediation and regeneration across the country, as we seek to deliver ever more affordable homes in places people are proud to call home for generations to come. 

<h4 class="jobSectionHeader">
What we offer...</h4> 


As well as a competitive salary and 33 days annual leave, we are committed to 50/50 hybrid working. We&rsquo;ll support you, wherever possible, so that you don&rsquo;t miss out on what matters to you.
