Working for Link Wentworth
Link Wentworth is one of the largest and fastest growing community housing providers in Australia, managing approximately 6,400 homes with around 10,000 residents. Using decades of community driven experience, our work engages the full spectrum of housing needs from homelessness services, to social, disability and affordable housing. We also provide support services to help people sustain their tenancies, strengthen their lives and participate fully in their communities. Link Wentworth is Tier 1 approved housing provider under the National Regulatory System for Community Housing (NRSCH) and is one of the few housing providers in NSW to provide Specialist Homelessness Service (SHS) for those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. With our partners, we are also increasing the supply of social and affordable housing by developing more homes in key areas of Sydney. We wholeheartedly believe that housing is a human right— that a roof above your head provides a person with not just safety but purpose, belonging and dignity.
