At SettleParadigm, we’re proud to be the largest housing group in the region, managing over 30,000 homes across Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, and Hertfordshire.
Everything we do is about delivering excellent services, high quality homes, neighbourhoods we can be proud of and maximising number of new affordable homes we build.

We’ll Provide Everything You Need, Including
- A fully equipped van and fuel card
- Work phone and tablet
- Uniform and PPE
