Performance Analyst

The UK is facing a housing crisis, and not everyone has the means to enjoy the security and stability of owning their own home. Our aim at Legal & General Affordable Homes is to transform the affordable housing sector. With a fast-growing pipeline of over 80,000 homes, we’re committed to investing in housing for all ages, social groups and tenures. We’re collaborating with developers, housing associations and public sector bodies across the country to drive investment into the UK’s affordable housing and social housing sector. Focusing primarily on the affordable rent, shared ownership and rent-to-buy markets, we’re striving to be the UK’s leading private affordable housing provider, known for excellent service and quality homes. We want to have a positive economic and social impact on the regions and communities in which we work.

Legal & General Affordable Homes is a subsidiary of Legal & General Capital, which focuses on growth opportunities and scale ups, and invests its long-term capital in sectors in need of investment and innovation.
