Clarion Housing group has ambitious plans focused on delivering high-quality new build developments and creating vibrant, thriving communities.
We are seeking a passionate and highly-driven Communities & Social Impact Manager to join Latimer (the development arm of Clarion Housing Group) to lead the design, delivery and evaluation of social value initiatives that create a positive impact in local communities. Experience within the construction or built environment sector is required.
The successful applicant will be self-motivated, resilient, and able to work autonomously while leading on all aspects of community and social impact throughout the development project lifecycle - from pre-planning through to project completion.
