Who works at Accent?

Find out more about the different teams and colleagues that work together at Accent. 

Colleagues who work in finance, ICT, business transformation, health and safety, communications and people are part of our Business Services team. They’re the backbone of what we do, and ensure both our business and our customers have all the support they need.  

Operations, assets and compliance, and housing services provide vital services to help our customers feel safe and secure in their homes. They liaise with partners to organise repairs and are often out and about in the community providing support in person.

Our contact centre colleagues are the voice of Accent, offering tailored housing support to our customers every day.

They field questions about arrears, repairs, lettings, complaints and anti-social behaviours, and help our customers feel heard and reassured. 

Our strategy and growth teams are responsible for managing our portfolio of properties, helping new homeowners settle in and making sure that Accent is on track with our goals to develop more, sustainable homes in areas that need them
