Our culture and values

If you’re looking for a rewarding role and super colleagues, you’ve come to the right place. We want to attract the best people to work for us and inspire them to succeed. 

We're reshaping our business to meet our ambitious goals and changing customer needs. This means creating a culture that makes it easy for people to do the right thing, empowering employees and customers to make decisions and take ownership of their neighbourhoods and communities. 

  • Shape the future - we want to be the leading landlord in the south of England and we're committed to improving customer service, building thousands more homes and reshaping Sovereign to do that - as well as staying financially strong and investing in new technology and innovation.
  • Feel good - we have a strong social purpose and we're not-for-profit, so every penny's reinvested in new and existing homes or on supporting and developing great services for all our customers and the communities they live in. That's why our exciting roles give you the chance to make a tangible difference to people's lives every day. 
  • Be yourself - being at work is a big part of our lives, so we're investing in creating attractive working environments and a welcoming, inclusive culture where you can bring your whole self and be valued and appreciated for who you are. 
  • Achieve more - if you share our commitment to excellence and growth, we'll give you great career and development opportunities and the recognition and reward you deserve. 

Our values

Our four values support our vision, shape our culture and describe what makes us different. They guide the way we make decisions and work with our customers, colleagues and stakeholders. 

Values show us what's important, how we should behave and inspire us to be the best we can be. Our values should stand the test of time but be refreshed every now and again to make sure they are still relevant. 

Connect

We build relationships with each other, our customers and partners. We're in this together.

Deliver

We deliver by doing what we say, and more. We're a trusted partner.

Invent

We're curious and brave, taking risks in pursuit of being better - for each other, our customers, our homes and communities, and the environment.

Own

We own everything we do, putting the customer first, every time. If it's the right thing to do, we do it.
