Welcome

Welcome

Based in the heart of Leeds city centre, Yorkshire Housing is an already successful organisation with big ambitions to build more homes and to provide our high quality services to even more people across our region. We are a housing association with a great track record and are confident in our ability to deliver on these ambitious targets.

It’s an exciting time. As well as building more new homes, we are also a significant way through a change programme to upgrade our technology to a Microsoft Dynamics solution. This will allow us to improve our services to customers and make it easier for our staff to deliver those services digitally.

At our core, we remain a values based organisation that is passionate about providing quality homes people can afford, building sustainable communities and helping people live independently.

In a fast changing internal and external environment, we need a finance team that enables strategic delivery and safeguards the financial viability of the organisation. We have a vision for the finance function and are looking for high performing, ambitious people who share our values to join our team to help deliver it.

If you like the sound of our ambitious plans and share our desire to want to make a positive difference to people’s lives then please apply.
