QUICK FACTS
WHO WE ARE
We are one of the most exciting and progressive social and community development businesses in the UK and celebrating diversity is part of our DNA.
MORE ABOUT US
Metropolitan is a leading provider of integrated housing services, care and support and community regeneration. We were founded to tackle the discrimination experienced by immigrants in the 1950s, who were unable to source high-quality, low-cost housing. Our shared objective and vision for all that we do, wherever we work, is simple and clear: improving life together. We now manage over 36,000 affordable homes for rent and sale to those with greatest need, along with a range of care and support services.
WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
We expect a lot from our people because our customers expect a lot from us. We’ll need you to take responsibility for your work and show respect for colleagues and customers. We believe the skills, talents and experience offered by our diverse workforce go right to the core of what we stand for, and help us meet the needs of a hugely diverse customer base. Fostering an environment where colleagues feel themselves at work is critical to our operational performance, and we are committed to ensuring equality of opportunity.
