This is what shapes the work we do. If you have a heart for helping people to make meaningful changes in their lives then take a look at the varied opportunities we offer.

Why Langley?

We are passionate about what we do and we get to see the impact on our clients daily. The results of our work and the way we deliver our vision together contributed strongly to our Investors in People Gold accreditation, which we are proud to have held for 9 consecutive years.

Langley offers hope and a safe place to thrive, amongst people who believe that broken lives can be transformed.

We are committed to a core set of values which underpin the way we work with our clients and each other.

We aspire to be Christ-like regardless of our faith perspective, and always behave in ways that are respectful, genuine, responsible, and visionary.

Staff Testimonies

I love working for Langley because regardless of our different roles within the organisation, we are all unified by one overarching aim – to extend love, hope and support to some of the most marginalised people in our society. Every client or potential client is utterly unique – which means every day is different and there is no space for complacency.

Katie

Being a support worker taught me a multitude of valuable skills that I still use every day within my current role in prison. These include learning about the criminal justice system, working directly with individuals who come from varying backgrounds with complex forensic and mental health histories, and learning how to effectively support men with their journey back into the community.

Kris

I was relatively new to management when I joined Langley, and I can proudly say, I have been able to develop personally and professionally in my time here. I wanted to work for an organisation with a good sense of mission, values and direction and Langley ticks those three boxes for me. The charitable and caring ethos of the Trust is clear to see and that speaks to what I also hold dearly.

Elijah

I am incredibly proud of working for Langley, I am proud of the vision, our values, the work we do and above all, my wonderful team and colleagues across the various services I support. Langley have not only put faith in me but also in my development by providing study sponsorship for a qualification I require in order to progress.

Kim

As a support worker, I have been able to make a real difference for many clients’ lives and can see the contributions I make paying off daily.

Owen

At Langley, the wellbeing of staff is considered as important as the work we do. Because of that, I have found that this is a fulfilling place to work, where my efforts are genuinely noticed and valued. I have been given many opportunities to choose a personal development path which will benefit me as well as the organisation as a whole.
