Partners Foundation is a Registered Social Landlord. Our aim is simple; to provide high quality homes and services to vulnerable adults who need support to manage their tenancy. We help people to develop the skills and confidence to live independently within their community.
We put people at the heart of everything we do and are unique in that we provide housing when all other options have been exhausted. We lead the way in improving lives, creating opportunities and supporting people to achieve great things. Our approach means vulnerable people can live in good homes with the necessary support, but also puts them on the path to improving their wellbeing, integrating within their communities, and living as independently as possible.
As part of our continuing growth, we are looking to recruit a full-time Finance Assistant.
