Why join us?
We offer a salary of £42,310.80 per year - for 35 hours per week, 26 days annual leave (rising annually to 31 days) plus Bank Holidays.
We have a flexible approach to work so living in Yorkshire isn’t a requirement of the role (although we’ll expect to see a fair bit of you here!). There will be times when you’ll be delivering and facilitating workshops which start at 09:00, so you’ll need to make sure you can be in Leeds with enough time to prep for the day ahead.
We offer a reward package to suit everyone. At YH, you can claim back for prescriptions, eye tests and more with our cash plan, make the most of a variety of retail discounts and take advantage of our pension scheme where we’ll match your contributions up to 9%, just to name a few.

So, now you’re really interested?
At Yorkshire Housing, we’re actively building a work environment that’s inclusive as well as diverse, where everyone can contribute their best work and be themselves.

- 1st stage interviews are expected to take place via Teams on 09 & 10.09.26
- 2nd Stage interviews are expected to take place on 23.09.26 Leeds.
