About City West

Launched in October 2008, City West Housing Trust is a Housing Association which owns and manages around 14,600 homes in West Salford.

As we are a not for profit organisation any money we make is re-invested back into improving homes, estates and providing better services. Our aim is to raise the standards of our communities, local areas and along the way, involve our customers in making a difference in their own futures.

More about us

We are run by a Management Board comprising of customers, independent members and local councillors. To make sure we are fair, City West is managed independently of the council and is regulated by the Tenant Services Authority.

We also have an exciting investment programme that is well underway. During the next five years we are spending over £235 million on improving homes, estates and services across our Sheltered Housing, high-rise and low-rise blocks, with a vision of completing an investment strategy of £900 million in the next 30 years.

This is an ambitious target and you can see our performance reports which we regularly feedback back to our customers and stakeholders.

With such a large number of properties to look after we also have an outstanding repairs and maintenance service at our locally based depot, City West Works. Our multi-skilled team manages our Repairs Service Centre and provides an advanced skills and training division too.

We know our most valuable assets are our people and as you can see, there are lots of opportunities within City West. It is an exciting time to join us, so why not visit our job vacancies and become part of our energetic team?
