The NRLA: Who we are
The NRLA is the UK’s largest organisation representing private residential landlords, a community of over 110,000 members across England and Wales. We’re on a mission to transform how landlords manage their properties, stay compliant, and operate day to day. And that means building the next generation of digital tools that will define the private rented sector for years to come.
We’re not here to be average. We’re carving out a bold digital path and building the foundations of what will become the operating system for the Private Rental Sector (PRS). To do that, we need talented, curious, forward-thinking developers who want to stretch themselves, learn new stacks, and help shape genuinely meaningful technology.
Recognised with Investors in People Gold and named by The Sunday Times as one of the UK’s best companies to work for, we offer a supportive, ambitious environment where innovation isn’t just welcomed, it’s expected. With hybrid working from our Manchester and London hubs, you’ll join a team that values professional growth, collaboration, and the desire to push boundaries.
If you want to build purposeful tech, upskill across multiple modern stacks, and play a key role in shaping the NRLA’s digital future, we’d love to hear from you.
