Hear what our people have to say about working at HomeStart.
“Working at HomeStart not only gives opportunities for growth, development and learning, but equally HomeStart really cares about its employees and allows the time for work life balance when needed. You cannot put a price on that flexibility.”
“Working for HomeStart has given me opportunities that I wouldn’t have been available elsewhere. The organisation feels like a big family, warm, friendly, and caring, a genuine sense that my opinion matters. There is a genuine care for our customers and each other. HomeStart is a great place to work!”
“I have worked for companies in the past that have said they are all about the people, when in reality it was all about the bottom line. This is not the case at HomeStart, they really care about their employees and customers. In the recent bush fire tragedy, HomeStart called all of the affected customers individually to see if they could help. Inspirational stuff, it’s a good feeling to be a part of that kind of culture.”
“I have been with HomeStart for only a year, and in that time, the culture here has truly made an impression on me. While I’ve had the privilege of working with great organisations before, the supportive and welcoming environment at HomeStart really stands out. The team is highly collaborative and driven, and it’s clear that everyone is genuinely invested in our shared goal of helping customers achieve their dreams of homeownership. This collective passion is what makes working here so fulfilling, and it’s why I look forward to coming to work every day.”
“Working at HomeStart has been an incredible experience from day one. The comprehensive training and induction process impressed me immediately, demonstrating a commitment to integrating new employees effectively into the business. It’s clear that HomeStart values the time and effort to ensure everyone feels welcome and prepared. Additionally, the flexibility offered here supports a healthy work-life balance, allowing me to excel in my role while also managing family commitments. The work is not only meaningful but also backed by a supportive team. I wholeheartedly recommend HomeStart as a fantastic place to work!”
“HomeStart most definitely cares about the well-being and work-life balance of their employees which is very hard to find in other workplaces. The ability to approach the Senior Executive team including the People & Culture Team anytime and their overall friendliness makes HomeStart an incredible place to work. Information Services is a very strong team, and everyone works here as a team and operates in a way that puts collective goals ahead instead of individual glory. I am proud to return to HomeStart and love working here.”
