About Orbit
Orbit was established in 1967 by two people on a park bench contemplating how to tackle homelessness. The passion they felt about the inequality in the access, scale and quality of available housing was channelled into positive action, and Orbit was created.
Nearly 60 years later, we're one of the leading housing providers in the UK. Our services have diversified, our housing portfolio has expanded, and our reputation as an innovator within our sector has grown. Our purpose today is every bit as important as it was when Orbit was founded.
But one thing has never changed. Our belief in people and what they can achieve.
Our people are key to our success. We know that colleagues who are motivated in their work, feel valued, respected and are united in achieving our purpose and mission, leading to delighted customers.
We ensure our colleagues’ voices are heard and they help to build our 2030 Strategy, our Customer Journey, our recently launched Colleague Commitments, and our soon to be launched new Orbit values.
