About us

We are Churchill Retirement Living, the fastest growing company in the UK retirement house building sector and we're looking for people like you.
Churchill Retirement Living is a privatelyowned, familyrun, business and we're going places. We take huge pride in what we do and the people who work for us and who we work with. We have ambitious growth plans for the future, now employing 700 people and growing all the time.
We take great satisfaction in providing quality, purposebuilt one and two bedroom apartments in desirable locations across the UK for those looking for an independent lifestyle in later life. Developments are designed to take away all the hassle and fears that can be experienced by older people and provide security, peace of mind and independence.
We've won a host of awards; most recently we have been recognised by The Sunday Times as the 3rd best company to work for and in 2016 we became the first ever retirement living specialist to have been named overall 'Housebuilder of the Year' by the WhatHouse? Awards. [Is this now too historic?
