Melin Homes, a not-for-profit social landlord, was established in 2007, and since then, it has been at the forefront of providing an array of housing solutions to those in need. With a portfolio of nearly 5,000 homes across South East Wales, Melin Homes is more than just a housing provider. It's an organisation that genuinely cares about its employees and the communities it serves.

The heartbeat of Melin Homes is its dedicated workforce, who are encouraged to maintain a healthy work-life balance and prioritise their mental and physical health. The company's award-winning 'Zest' initiative, recognised by Public Health Wales, is a testament to its robust Health & Wellbeing culture. The company's agile working approach, which won the 'Workplace Transformation Project of the Year' award at the 2016 UK IT Industry awards, allows staff to work from wherever they prefer.

Melin Homes' community focus is evident through its continuous efforts to engage staff in community activities. The organisation is also renowned for its innovative approaches to employee recognition, with the 'Diolch' initiative allowing employees to acknowledge their peers' efforts, and the 'Housing Hero' awards recognising exceptional contributions to the company's success.

The Senior Management Team champions an open and supportive culture, regularly interacting with team members and ensuring they are in touch with on-ground activities. The Chief Executive leads by example, promoting a culture of hard work, fun, and inclusivity.
