Yesterday, we brought our Women's Networking Group together for the first time at our new London HQ. We had 27 women from across iQ connecting over lunch before Louise Southam from inclusion in took the group through our theme for the month - Breaking Barriers: Strategies for Career Acceleration. iQer Esha Joshi AMCT shared her key takeaways saying, “Louise brought thought provoking topics to our third iQ Women’s Networking Group. Showing us how to utilise our Personal Brand as well as people around us, to help us be successful and have a lasting impact. The conversations were insightful, personal and it was great to hear everyone's views. Looking forward to hearing more self-promotion around the office! Thank you, Louise, for such a great session" #ItsAniQThing #WomenNetworking #Networking #WiHTL #PBSA #BuildingItTogether #ExploringIt

Reimagining the student accommodation experience and giving our residents their best year yet.
About us
Every day, iQ Student Accommodation provides the best home-from-home environment from which 28,000 university students can confidently make the most of the opportunities open to them. We believe that the right setting helps them to learn, flourish and to make the most of their time at university. As one of the largest providers of student accommodation in the UK, we operate 67 sites in 27 locations, with our most recent development having just opened in Glasgow City Centre. Our residents join us from all over the UK and from over 120 different nations. We put students first – delivering a range of safe, well-located and high quality accommodation. We believe that the right environment is important in how students experience university – not just through the quality of their rooms or the proximity to the university campus, but in the way students feel whilst they are living in the accommodation. This belief is at the centre of the business, and we build the student experience around it. We make it as easy as possible for students to make new friends by creating a sense of community through building design, leisure facilities, events and shared study and relaxation spaces. Parents have peace of mind knowing that we provide safe, comfortable and well-maintained environments for their children, including having management or security staff onsite around the clock. We are a more than 550-strong team, with headquarters in London and Manchester, and we are proud of our commitment to developing truly customer-centric teams – it’s why are so focused on building a winning team and culture, and investing in innovative training. Our dedicated site teams across the UK mean that we have a deep local understanding of our markets. With unrivalled training and passionate teams who enjoy having fun, it’s a very exciting time to join us.

Every Summer, our iQers are busy getting ready to provide a best welcome to our new class of residents about to begin their best year yet at iQ. With over 38,000 residents set to move into their home away from home, we wanted to thank iQers for their hard work and energy. We worked with The Goodness Project (UK) to create our very own Goodness Packs to help recharge and energise our teams. We also included a video from our friends at Outliers Wellbeing | B-Corp to support our teams with looking after their own Wellbeing. Here’s to having our best summer yet! #ItsAniQThing #BestYearYet #buildingittogether #wellbeing #recognition #PBSA

Our commitment to digital innovation has driven us to reimagine the app experience, focusing on what matters most to our residents. The new iQ App, with its intuitive design, is tailored to streamline daily tasks and enhance the overall living experience for our residents. Paul Busa, our Technology Director has been excited to reveal our new features; "Face ID login, 'remember me' functionality, and quick QR code scanning for parcel collection are not just about convenience; they're about creating a seamless connection between technology and daily life." We're excited to see how our residents will make the most of these new features. Here’s to simplifying life, and having iQ in your pocket. #MyiQLife #DrivenByDigital #PBSA #StudentLiving #BestYearYet

We couldn’t be prouder to be able to supporting levelling the playing field for social mobility! #forceforgood #iQThriveAcademy #socialmobility #jumpstart #fundraising
A huge thank you to iQ Student Accommodation for their incredible fundraising campaign, JumpStart for Social Mobility! 🚀 iQ colleagues were asked to skip in the name of social mobility, opting to either Try it: Complete 11 skips, Endure it: Skip for 11 mins, or Speed up: Most number of skips in 11 minutes. The amazing iQers raised a whopping £27,500 for upReach, funding 11 spaces on the iQ Thrive Academy. 💥 We are extremely grateful to iQ Student Accommodation for this fantastic initiative raising not only awareness for social mobility, upReach and our mission but also raising a substantial amount of money to support even more students from lower socio-economic backgrounds to access and sustain top Graduate Jobs. #iQStudentAccommodation #JumpStart #Fundraiser

Last week iQers took part in the JumpStart for Social Mobility 11% Challenge. Not only was the challenge heaps of fun but as a result we’re proudly donating £27,500 to our social mobility charity partner upReach. A big well done to iQers across the UK that skipped 11 times, in 11 places or for 11 minutes- their commitment to supporting such a worthy cause was inspiring to see. But why 11? We know from upReach that a student who has completed their employability programme is 11% more likely to secure a top grad job than a student from a similar background who has not. So, at the beginning of the challenge we set the goal of raising enough donations to support 11 more students through the upReach Employability Programme, resulting in our target of £27,500. Whether through fundraising, mentoring, the iQ Thrive Academy, or volunteering, we are thrilled to see our team's enthusiasm in driving and supporting these efforts to level the playing field. #iQStudents #SocialMobility #iQThriveAcademy #LevelingThePlayingField #ForceForGood #iQThrive #JumpStart

First time through the assessment process and we’re straight in with gold.🏅 A fantastic achievement and something I think that we can be really proud of. #ItsAniQThing
The Olympic athletes aren’t the only ones walking away with a Gold Medal this week… we’re proud to announce that in our very first assessment, we’ve achieved the Gold Accreditation from Investors in People under their ‘We invest in people’ framework. The IiP Gold accreditation is a testament to our commitment to making our workplace a fantastic environment for our iQers. Our journey to this point wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication and valuable contributions of our iQers. So, here’s a big shout out to them! CEO, Matt Merrick shared "I've often wondered how iQ would fare in the highly regarded Investors in People assessment, and now we know! It was fitting that we received a Gold rating on the opening day of the Olympic Games in Paris! This is a fantastic achievement for the team and a great reflection of how our people feel about their work lives here at iQ. Well done everyone." Creating a great place to work – It’s an iQ Thing Dushyant Sangar Alex Moon James Mortimer Matthew Loughlin Lucy Entwistle Richard Budd #Investorsinpeople #IiP #Gold #ItsAniQThing #culture #workplace

What a fantastic first week we've had in our new London HQ. Our exciting new space, although just down the river from our previous location, feels a world apart. Matthew Loughlin, Elliot Newton and the entire project team have truly reimagined our working space to reflect the vision we have across all of our iQ sites- to give students their best year yet by creating the right spaces. From soundproof pods for teams calls, to meeting rooms named after our brand values 2 More London couldn't feel more like home. This move for iQ HQ is an exciting one that creates a space for iQers to come together and continue working on delivering a world class experience in student accommodation. Oh and the pink ping pong table? It's an iQ thing. #BestYearYet #MyiQLife #ItsAniQThink #ReimagineIt #BuildingItTogether #OfficeSpace #PBSA
