About ISHA
We are a small but ambitious housing association at a critical juncture.

Our ambition is for the communities we are anchored in and exist to serve, and we have done and achieved much over the past few years.

But in these challenging times we know we'll achieve nothing unless we are equally ambitious for own our people.


Our values are at the heart of who we are and everything we do, inspiring our thinking and guiding our actions.

We strive to build a more diverse organisation, where everyone feels empowered to bring, and be, their best self to work.

We can't be a brilliant landlord if we don't partner with brilliant colleagues. Could you be one of them and be trusted to make _the_ difference?

If this sounds exciting, we want you on our team. Please do apply.


Staff Benefits


We'll offer you a generous pension scheme (up to 10% employer matched contributions and a death in service benefit), 29 days annual leave (increasing after five years' service), eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits (see attached).

We have an evolving wellbeing offer, that is being developed following employee feedback, and we will invest in your professional development with on-going training and career development opportunities.


Inclusion and Diversity

Asking for adjustments
