Our Priorities and How We Are Doing
Contents
Strategic Plan
Our key priorities are set out in our Strategic Plan which was agreed in consultation with Colchester City Council, customers, colleagues, and Board members. Our vision is to enable customers, colleagues, and communities to thrive and our Strategic Plan sets out our ambitions and focuses on three clear priorities.
- Our customers
- Our colleagues
- Our communities
Our customers
Our aim is to deliver a positive customer experience across all services. We plan to make residents’ voices heard within our organisation and increase overall customer satisfaction by 5% by 2027. Our services will become more accessible for everyone through better use of information and technology.
Our colleagues
Our ambition is to be a great local employer. We aim to develop our employment practices and invest in our people, offering every person the opportunity to thrive. As a result, we expect our staff satisfaction on CBH being a great place to work to increase by 5% by 2027.
Our communities
By investing in the homes we manage and promoting safe, inclusive communities, we will shape neighbourhoods where people thrive and feel proud to live. Our aim is to enter the top quartile of neighbourhood satisfaction and introduce 350 new managed properties by 2027.
