About Homewise
Founded on family values
We’re a family-run business based in Worthing, West Sussex, and have been helping people move home since 1971.
Our team has increased at a rapid rate in recent years, from 30 staff in 2015 to 70+ today, and still growing! We continue to recruit, promote and create new opportunities for our staff.
As the company continues to grow, our core values and family focus remain the same. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do, and each department contributes to the journey of every customer.
“The entire team share the same beliefs and vision for positive outcomes for our customers and colleagues on a daily basis - built on ideas, energy and passion!”
“It's refreshing to work in a business that cares about people, both employees and customers. The office has a family feel about it, people genuinely care about it each other and want to help each other to succeed.”
“My career here is proof that you can develop at Homewise. The team has grown from 12 - 70 in my time and there are now multiple departments that didn't exist! Hard work, energy, skill and values get rewarded.”
