INDMED

Centigen is a Gloucestershire-based facilities management company, providing invaluable services such as grounds and building maintenance and commercial cleaning to clients across the local region.

We are a subsidiary of Two Rivers Housing - a charity which provides homes for low-cost rent and supports activities and amenities across communities.

All surplus income generated by Centigen is gifted back to Two Rivers, allowing staff to continue their work for the benefit of future generations.

As a social enterprise business, we combine the best of the private and charitable sectors: a commercial drive for quality, value, efficiency and customer satisfaction, with strong ethics, caring values and financial security.

Inclusion and Diversity

We work hard to create a diverse and inclusive culture and environment where people are respected for who they are.

Encouraging inclusion is not just about protected characteristics, it's about celebrating differences of thought, opinion, experience and perspective of each individual.

We're all different in our own way and we want our colleagues to feel comfortable, that they belong, and are safe to be themselves at work, without fear of being judged or excluded, but valued for their contribution to our One Team approach.
