Group Head of Marketing & Social Value, Pippa Pang, was proud to represent Kinovo Group at the Chartered Institute of Housing event, Shaping Futures and Professional Excellence in the Housing Sector, in support of the launch of the #CHOOSEHOUSING campaign.
With its focus on celebrating the diverse career opportunities available within the sector, and potential ways to attract and support new talent, the launch saw industry leaders, recruiters, and Social Value specialist come together for an afternoon of insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and panel sessions led by key figures including Elly Hoult and CIH Futures representatives.
Key themes of the event included:
- Building Professional Excellence in Social Housing with a Social Purpose – A deep dive into the importance of professionalism, social impact, and maintaining high standards within the industry.
- Pathways to Progress: Earning While Learning in Social Housing – A focus on apprenticeships, work experience, and inclusive recruitment practices to ensure equal opportunities for all.
As a Group, we are committed to creating meaningful employment pathways and strengthening the future workforce in housing. We fully embrace the campaign and the fresh ideas it offers on how we can continue to attract, support, and develop talent within our organisation and the wider social housing industry.
CIH has put together a toolkit to provide resources and guidance on how to raise awareness of the career opportunities the housing sector provides.
