Qualifications and career development

Helping you to do your job brilliantly

Ask many people who work in housing how they arrived there and very few will say that they always wanted to be a housing officer. Many however, will tell you that they became part of the housing sector by accident or they "fell into housing".

Some may say that housing as a career is one of the best kept secrets ever. A career in housing is varied, often challenging but hugely rewarding.
