Choosing to work at Stef &amp; Philips is about more than just having a job. All members of our team share the same goal: to help improve the lives of vulnerable people around the UK, by delivering safe, suitable homes and vital services for the homeless, backed by investors who care. This people-centred ethos is reflected in our company culture; we prioritise wellbeing, inclusion and opportunity for all. Our journey so far Stef &amp; Philips began life in 2006 as a traditional family-run lettings agent, servicing private tenants and landlords in North London. But the UK's urgent need for good quality social housing had a profound impact on our Founder and CEO, Chris Philippou. In 2012 he acted on that need, and we now operate UK-wide with over 3800 accommodation units, 5500 tenants and counting. By bringing together private investors, local authorities, charities and housing associations in a spirit of trust and a shared commitment to improving tenants' lives, we've created a versatile, end-to-end model that delivers fit-for-purpose accommodation and services - a setting where people can begin to thrive again. Our full service approach is unique. All work is carried out by dedicated in-house teams to ensure reliable, high-quality service. The process begins with private or institutional investors looking for a positive social impact. Once we've helped them to source and acquire the right property, our construction arm remodels and refurbishes it to our exacting quality standards. We also sign a lease with the investor to handle lettings, management and maintenance, while protecting their capital and yields. We believe everyone deserves a safe place to call home and right now though the UK's housing crisis is getting worse, with homelessness forecast to double over the next 25 years. We're committed to changing that trend, combining profit with purpose. Our roots as a family business remain at the core of who we are, as do the values that go with it, and our commitment to helping vulnerable people get the housing help they need.
