About Coastline Housing
Coastline Housing is an independent Cornish charitable housing association owning and managing more than 5,000 homes, as well as an extra care living facility and a homeless service.
The housing crisis means the challenge we face is enormous. Only 1 in 10 of homes in Cornwall is an affordable home. Private rents and house prices are unaffordable to most, trapping families in poverty.
Coastline exists to help solve this crisis. To provide housing for those in need, to help improve the neighbourhoods that people live in, and to provide services that improve the quality of our customers’ lives.
Coastline is more than just a landlord. Our footprint extends beyond our homes and into local communities. We know we have a role to play in tackling stigma, deprivation and enabling life-enhancing opportunities for customers, ultimately improving quality of life, health and wellbeing.
Coastline’s mission, should you choose to accept: to provide great homes and great service. For that, we need great people. Could you be just who we’re looking for?
