MORE ABOUT US

It Takes a City Community Land Trust (the CLT) has a mission. High levels of rough sleeping and homelessness are in many towns and cities across the UK. In Cambridge we and others have been pioneering the development of small, supported communities for people who are homeless using Modern Methods of Construction. Between us we’ve delivered 26 such homes in Cambridge and 30 further afield: we’ve made a good start. We now want to go further, and faster. The CLT has brought together an extraordinary group of partners to help achieve this ambition and a long list of potential cities including Cambridge, Bristol and Leeds.

This is full time, senior role, salary up to £45k, open to all.
