Working collaboratively across three directorates: finance and central services, membership and professional development, and policy, communication and external affairs - we are a diverse team with a vast range of skills and experience.
As an organisation we get together at least once a year at our all-colleague conference in Coventry. Plus, there’s always a chance to catch up with colleagues, at our range of member events throughout the year across the UK and Ireland, team days, directorate days and in person meetings. We embrace virtual meetings too and have a weekly all hands meeting to share our latest updates, virtual quizzes and everything in between! We truly are a connected UK wide organisation.
Our location
We embrace hybrid working and encourage everyone in CIH to work from a location that suits them and our business needs.
No role is exclusively remote. Organisational cohesiveness is important to our overall performance; we value the benefits of coming together with colleagues to enable the cohesiveness of teams, departments, and collaborative working across CIH. This, and our operating model, means that there will be times when you are required to go to your local office, another CIH office, or another location such as a CIH event.
Your contracted office will usually be the CIH office that is the closest to where you live. CIH office locations can be found here – Contact details | Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH)
You will also be asked to join your colleagues at our annual colleague conference, held in Coventry, to catch up business projects, hear from expert speakers, network and much more. These are a highlight in the colleague calendar with all colleagues expected to attend.
If you have any questions about our hybrid working policy or live more remotely, please contact us to ask how this would work in practice for the role you are applying for.
