About us

MTVH is one of the UK’s leading housing associations. In the midst of a deepening housing crisis and volatile political and economic landscape, we are a robust and innovative organisation with our roots in community. We have to keep delivering new homes and services residents trust, despite the uncertainty. Our vision is to give everyone a home, and the opportunity to live well. The Communications Team sits at the core of delivering this; great stories have the power to connect us, to raise awareness and to influence how people feel and act. We place the stories of our customers and communities at the heart of what we do, and they play a huge role in helping us achieve our ambitions.

We have an exciting opportunity for two dynamic and talented individuals to join our creative content team. These roles come with huge opportunity to harness the power of imaginative storytelling and persuasive writing.

Working within a highly collaborative team, you’ll be hands-on delivering and driving bold and innovative content to engage and inspire a range of audiences.

The role is key in bringing our brand to life and making sure our communications are effective. You may be writing and creating content yourself, giving clear direction to external agencies, or making sure the work of colleagues is innovative and on-brand.

Person Specification

You need to play well with others; ours is a team with relationships across the business and beyond. However, you’ll also need the confidence to work and make decisions independently, advising colleagues and agencies on the best way to communicate, spotting opportunities we can leverage and contributing ideas at planning meetings.

‘Content’ for us is a broad church. Primarily you need to understand messaging, tone of voice and how to communicate with a variety of audiences. Therefore, strong copywriting skills are a must. If you can also graphic design or pick up a camera, that’s fantastic. If not, we’ll train you, but you’ll need to be comfortable commissioning and managing the production of media projects from agencies and freelancers.

Additional benefits

In addition to generous holiday entitlement we provide:

• A matched contribution pension scheme

• Life assurance

• Enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption leave

• Salary sacrifice schemes and season ticket loans

• Voluntary benefits including cash back and discounts from high street names

• A commitment to flexible and agile working
