Aster Group UK

We’re pleased to announce Gary Bellenger as our new Director of Home Strategy and Sustainability, marking a pivotal moment in our sustainability journey. 🙌 Gary said: “Upgrading the UK’s homes, some of the oldest in Europe, has a significant part to play in helping to reduce the country’s carbon emissions, so it’s incredibly important for sustainability to be baked into all new-build, maintenance and investment programmes. It’s our priority to make sure our customers feel comfortable and safe in their homes and that’s why we’re working to ensure that all of our homes are sustainable, energy efficient and healthy spaces to live in. “I’m looking forward to building on the strong foundations of sustainable practice already present at Aster and to developing a new and ambitious strategy focused on enabling healthier, more resilient homes and communities.” Read more here 👇 https://lnkd.in/efXN4p6e #Sustainability #HousingAssociation #SustainableHomes

We know our trades work hard maintaining our customers’ homes so it’s always great to hear back from customers who have been impressed. “Thumbs up to Aster and your team! Thank you, Zach. This is the second time both a plumber and gas engineer have come, and I am impressed with their politeness, explanations of what needed to be done, and overall professionalism.” We take pride in providing the best customer service to our customers, want to join our team? https://loom.ly/w-NtUMY Please tag and share! #Jobs #Recruiting #Careers #Vacacancies

Huge congratulations to Finn who has passed his Carpentry and Joinery (Site Carpenter) Level 2 apprenticeship. Finn’s been with us for five years, initially as a labourer, before deciding he wanted to upskill to a carpenter. He’s not stopping there though! Finn intends to keep learning on the job and gain as much experience as he can doing. Well done Finn 🙌 #Apprenticeships #Apprentices #WorkBasedLearning
