Why Join Ardenglen Housing Association?
Let’s start with the important stuff.
Who Are Ardenglen?
Established in 1990, Ardenglen was initially set up to provide community-led action to reverse poor housing conditions and neighbourhood decline in East Castlemilk, situated in the south of Glasgow. Today, we are a leading not-for-profit landlord providing high quality homes and services in the area, where we own and manage approximately 1000 properties.
Our long-term vision is to transform communities by providing aspirational homes and services, to enhance the quality of life of our customers. In order to achieve this, we are currently focusing on consolidating and improving our services, improving opportunities for local people and seeking modest growth where available.
In 2020, we were proudly crowned Housing Association of the year at the Scottish Home Awards and with our Investors in People accreditation, we believe that now is an exciting time to be joining the organisation.
