Working for CHC
Community Housing Cymru is a remote working organisation, with staff based across north and south Wales, and in England. Staff have the freedom to perform their job when and where they work best.
We get together as a whole staff team regularly, and have an office space in Cardiff that everyone can use for meetings and collaborative working.
Our culture and values are important to us, and we are proud to have a staff team that is not only dedicated to our mission but passionate about the work needed to progress.
We encourage innovation and are always exploring how we can do things better. There are lots of opportunities to work collaboratively across the organisation on projects, events, and campaigns and also across the sector.
Our values reflect how we work with each other, as well as our members and stakeholders.
