L&Q was founded in 1963 as a charitable housing association. We offer people the chance to buy or rent homes, and today L&Q has grown to be one of south east England’s leading residential developers.

We combine a strong sense of social purpose with commercial drive to create homes and communities that people can be proud of.

We recently merged with East Thames Ltd and our new combined organisation owns and manages over 90,000 homes across the UK and employs more than 2,500 staff. We have ambitious plans to deliver 100,000 homes over the next ten years.

In order to accommodate this growth plan, we are always looking to recruit people who share our ambition and passion for what we do.

When you look for an employer, choose one that cares as much about its staff as it does about its customers. At L&Q we are committed to exemplary training, staff welfare and encouraging personal development. Our new combined organisation will invest £5 million a year into a training academy to make sure we attract and retain talented and highly qualified staff.

L&Q is recognised as an Investor in People, a Great Place to Work and a Stonewall top 100 employer.

Rewarding organisation
This is a great place to work in my opinion. Lots of training and opportunity for development. My manager supports me consistently giving me further satisfaction.

Lots of people talk about the pay for a housing officer but the company offer performance related pay increases giving staff a chance to...
Housing Assistant in London, Greater London

No to Housing Management

Housing assistants are underpaid property managers and the workload is very high. If you are new to housing then it is a great stepping stone for progression. The role was advertised as admin but it is far from that and you are regularly on estates, so don’t apply i...

Nice team
Great company to work for but just too much paperwork involved. Management are cool and welcome you as part of a team. The pay could be slightly better.
