Full job descriptionAre you ready to play a key role in turning houses into homes? At Raven Housing Trust, we’re committed to ensuring every property we let meets a high standard for our residents—and we’re looking for a Voids Surveyor who shares that passion.
As part of our growing Property & Estate Services team, this is an exciting opportunity to take ownership of the voids journey and help prepare homes for new residents quickly and to a high standard. You’ll enjoy a role with real variety, autonomy, and the chance to develop specialist expertise in void property management.
This is not a traditional surveying role—it’s about driving quality, efficiency, and customer outcomes. You’ll be instrumental in ensuring homes are ready to welcome new residents, playing a vital role in supporting communities and improving the overall customer experience.
At Raven, you’ll be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking organisation where your work truly matters. We’re committed to supporting your development, including opportunities to work towards RICS accreditation and grow your career in housing.

*Engage with internal teams and partners to keep progress on track
*Build positive relationships with stakeholders, maintaining clear and effective communication
*Use digital and smart systems to record activity and manage progress
*Manage your own workload and schedule, balancing multiple properties and priorities


What you’ll bring
We’re looking for someone who is organised, customer-focused, and takes pride in delivering great results. You’ll thrive in this role if you:
*Bring a calm, professional approach when liaising with customers and stakeholders
*Are confident using IT systems and comfortable working with digital tools
*Enjoy managing your own workload in a field-based, fast-paced environment
*Have a proactive, detail-focused approach to maintaining quality standards
*Build strong working relationships and communicate effectively
*Have an interest in housing, property, or surveying and want to build a long-term career
*Are motivated to develop professionally, with support to work towards RICS accreditation
This role is particularly well suited to individuals with experience in housing, property maintenance, construction, or other customer-focused, field-based environments who are looking to take the next step in their career.
