Benefits for trades
In addition to the competitive salary, generous holidays, sick pay, pension, life cover, discounts and other rewards available to all our employees, our trades receive these additional benefits.
- Tools allowance and uniform - we provide uniform, your larger tools plus an additional personal tool allowance of £200 to £335 a year, depending on the trade.
- Modern vans - our fleet of 700 vehicles means we’ll provide the right one for your role, fully insured, fitted out and with integrated satellite navigation. A fuel card means you won’t be out of pocket to fill up either.
- Multi-Skilled Technician (MST) programme - our in-house MST programme gives you the chance to learn new skills and increase your salary.
Our customers are at the heart of our business, so our great Customer Contact teams are central to SNG. They’re often the main point of contact for the customers and deal with a variety of queries, so no day is the same.
South and West regions – teams are based at our modern offices in Basing View, Basingstoke. We have ample parking, free tea and state of the art coffee machines - plus a subsidised café.

We strive to provide quality services and more opportunity for customers, enabling them to live their best lives and build thriving, resilient communities.
Our skilled Housing and Communities teams play a vital role in this work – advocating for and supporting our customers on a wide range of topics and across all property and tenure types.
Roles include Locality Officers, Customer Accounts Officers and Tenancy Support Advisors plus Community, Investment and Partnership Leads, Employment and Skills Officers and those supporting our customers on financial and digital inclusion. Others focus on co-creating services with customers and make sure they can influence what we do.
By spring 2025 we will also have set up a charitable Community Foundation to expand on our existing work and deliver £100m of investment across our communities over the next decade.
We’re a housebuilder but also understand our responsibility to future generations, who will inherit the built environment we’re investing in today. We are setting the highest standards for affordable homes and great places to live.
We have established an ambitious Homes and Place Standard and want to build homes of the future - that are safe, flexible, enjoyable to live in, digitally connected and cost effective.
If you share our commitment to shaping the future of housing, you’ll find us a secure place to build a long-term career.
As a strong, growing, and sustainable business we want to lead from the front and shape conversations in the housing industry, using our power and influence to make a real difference to people’s lives.
We provide modern workplaces that encourage a healthy, diverse and collaborative environment across our regions. Here you'll find a varied range of services that you’d expect to see from a FTSE 250 business.
These teams support our Housing, Development and Property Management departments, making sure they have the tools they need to maintain our leading position in the sector. They're also key to the development and implementation of our corporate strategy, processes and controls.
IT, Digital and Transformation roles
Achieving our ambitions will rely on sustainable innovation and transformation to deliver the level of service our customers demand and deserve. We balance pace with change to implement technology, data, automation or new systems that support our colleagues and connect teams around the business. And we’re investing in digital to give customers more choice: utilising modern digital solutions to provide online services and to meet their expectations for digitally-enabled homes.
Corporate Strategy and People teams
As well as hiring, retaining and rewarding talented employees, our corporate strategy and people teams are key to driving the strategic direction of the organisation, developing great leaders who role model our values and behaviours, and implementing company processes and controls.
Corporate Affairs
Our Corporate Affairs teams make sure that we’re communicating and engaging effectively with our key audiences (from employees and customers to government ministers). We also want to be known as one of the most influential housing associations and a go-to organisation for policymakers.
Finance and legal
We’re in a strong business position – equivalent to a FTSE 250 – so we look for commercially minded individuals to enable our ambitious goals. Our Finance and Legal teams deliver constant innovation and improvement. Whether that’s scrutinising operational efficiencies, pushing for policy changes, or transforming strategic plans, they make sure SNG is in the best position to grow and adapt.
