I have worked for Halton Housing since 2005, and it feels like family to me. The organisation has been very supportive both professionally and personally, and this relationship has brought out the best of me.
Halton Housing has supported me through further education and funded my Degree.  More recently I became a manager, and the support I have received has been humbling.

Halton Housing has such a great culture with customers being at the heart of everything and continuing to improve lives. They provide excellent benefits for employees such as excellent pay frame, generous holiday entitlement, employee health benefit & assistance programmes and regular health checks. By far the biggest thing that keeps me here is the agile and flexible culture especially the remote working approach which allows for a better work-life balance.
