    Who are we?

    Moat are one of the top 30 housing associations in England, with homes spread across London, Kent, Essex and Sussex.

    Our financial strength puts us in a good position to rise to challenges and plan for the future.

    We have just released our new corporate strategy, so it's an exciting time to join Moat This involves being bold and ambitious, investing in new and existing homes; putting safety and quality first.

    We also deliver for and with our customers through our new Customer Engagement strategy, which will help us to deliver the requirements of the Social Housing White Paper.

    We're not your 'standard' housing association.

    Having been one of the pioneers of shared ownership in the early 1990s, leasehold now makes up more than a third of our overall stock.

    Since then, we have assisted thousands of people to become shared owners, many of whom now own their homes outright but they still have a relationship with Moat as leaseholders and as part of the community on our developments.

    We are also proud to announce we have recently been awarded an accreditation from

    'The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2023',

    based on our employee feedback.


    Your role will include:

    • Project managing key transformational and continuous improvement projects in line with Moat's corporate strategy, delivering against agreed deliverables to budget, time and quality constraints
    • Ensuring projects are commissioned and delivered in line with Moat's process for change and using agreed governance documentation.
    • Overseeing the end-to-end delivery cycle for projects from ideation and discovery phases, through to the scope definition, resource & planning, execution and transfer of projects to an operational state of acceptance.
    • Identifying and managing key project resources, ensuring roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and the relevant skills needed to execute the change have been secured.
    • Working with project sponsors to articulate clear business cases with sound financial and business impact analysis, in line with our project framework.
    • Working with project sponsors and operational leaders to create and execute against benefits realisation plans, inclusive of identifying and tracking benefits.
    • Proactively identifying, assessing and managing project risks in line with Moat's project management framework, ensuring adequate escalation and ownership of risks throughout the delivery lifecycle.
    • Managing project budgets in line with our delivery framework, ensuring project costs are under control and escalation processes for financial risks are followed.
    • Working with colleagues across the business including IT & front line colleagues to ensure that Current and Future State processes are clearly defined as part of the project lifecycle.
    • Developing and executing against stakeholder management and communication plans (in conjunction with colleagues in our Communications team), ensuring both Moat colleagues and customers are not only informed of key updates, but are actively engaged in the changes being deployed.
    • Evaluating the success of deliverables and working with business owners to ensure controlled closure and transfer of projects through to an operational state, in which the change can be effectively sustained.
    • Ensuring that best practice is used across the organisation, facilitating a culture of continuous improvement, through effective lessons learnt processes and contributing to the upskilling of colleagues in change & project management principles.
    • Developing and maintaining excellent relationships with operational colleagues to ensure that we work collaboratively and consistently on all projects and change programmes.
