HSPG: A social impact real estate company

HSPG is a social impact real estate company. Our mission is simple: Building partnerships, creating homes, developing communities.

There is a critical shortage of affordable housing across the UK. We partner with Local Authorities and institutional investors to acquire and manage high-quality, demand-driven homes across multiple tenures.

Across our Living Sector platforms, we are on track to acquire 12,000 homes by 2030. These homes are grouped into portfolios, professionally managed by our team, and funded by long-term institutional capital. We deliver this through two specialist operating platforms: Seahorse and PPHA.

Seahorse acquires, develops and manages homes for homeless residents across England through its Homeless Affordable Rent product, meeting urgent housing need with professionally managed, high-quality accommodation.

North Star: creating over 5,000 homes by 2029.

PPHA, the Group’s Registered Provider, partners with local authorities, housebuilders and investors to deliver Section 106 and grant-funded Affordable Rent and Shared Ownership homes, expanding supply and creating lasting social value.

North Star: creating homes for over 8,000 families or individuals by 2030.

Together, these platforms enable HSPG to meet housing need at scale, creating meaningful social impact for customers and residents, while delivering sustainable, long-term returns for our partners.

Core Behaviours:

Core mission:

The role will help execute the investment strategy, manage debt relationships and facilities, supporting capital partner relationships and owning institutional-quality reporting. The candidate will be responsible for the financial analysis underpinning investment, funding and asset management decisions, ensuring the Senior Leadership Team, the PPHA Board and capital partners have clear and reliable information on portfolio performance, capital deployment and expected returns.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
