Description
Raven Housing Trust is a community Housing Association that provides affordable homes for around 6,500 households in one of the most expensive parts of the country. As well as providing good quality, affordable, and sustainable homes, we provide support services for those who need them including financial advice, employment and training. We’re building new homes by regenerating our existing land and estates and purchasing additional sites. But it’s not what we do; it’s how we do it that sets us apart from other organisations and helps us create a great customer experience, because we care. At Raven, our purpose is to build homes and change lives, creating lasting change and enhancing the lives of those we serve.
We believe in the power of technology to drive innovation and improve quality of life for our residents and communities. Building on the success of our multi award-winning ‘Better Connected’ programme, we are using data to better design and deliver our services, tailored to the needs of our residents.
To help us be at the forefront of technology innovation in the housing sector, we are looking for a Board Member who has a track record at a strategic level of applying technology and data to the design of good customer service. You’ll be an integral part of our Board, contributing to a broad range of Board decisions, and balancing the desire for innovation with the increasing demands on our organisation and the social housing sector as a whole, including increasing costs and a changing regulatory regime.
We always look to be progressive in our approach and are excited by the opportunities ahead. If you would like to help us shape and deliver our vision, and share our pride and passion for changing lives, we would like to hear from you.
