Big dreams, small team — join Christchurch Housing Society and make a real impact!

We are a small charitable housing society with just over 600 rented properties in around Christchurch, Poole, and Bournemouth. All our residents are over 60 years of age. 

We value great teamwork, honesty and provide a service to our residents that is caring and unique. We do this by working together, rolling our sleeves up to get things done. 

Our residents value what we do. We spend time with them explaining what we can do, not what we can’t. We don’t rush from one job to the next and the work is relaxed and rewarding. Every day the small things you do will make a big difference.    

If you are fed up being pushed from pillar to post, then this could just be the work environment you have been looking for.
