The Opportunity

Our Service team are right at the heart of our customer’s journey. You’ll be the friendly face our customer sees after they get the keys to their dream home.

You’ll take care of our customers from moving in and over the next 2 years of them enjoying their new home.

You’ll build some great relationships with our internal teams and contractors to arrange to fix snags in our customers’ homes. You’ll play a huge part in keeping our customers happy and our brand and reputation strong.

So it goes without saying, we have something special. You’ll work in a place where your uniqueness is cherished, your development is championed, and you’re given all of the tools you’ll need to flourish. You’ll join a team with a vision to become the market leading customer experience home builder underpinned by our sustainability and social purpose credentials.
