Raven is here to make a difference, working as a team to build homes and change lives. Raven is a great place to work, both to deliver real outcomes for customers, and to build a career in a supportive and motivated environment.

You will monitor progress, manage project teams, and proactively identify and mitigate risks and issues to keep projects on track throughout their lifecycle. By the nature of the work we do in the team, you will be involved in activities across the whole organisation, and will have direct engagement with senior leaders up to CEO level.
