My client, is a highly regarded and well known Consultancy focused on Commercial and Residential real estate in the UK.

Strategically, the company will be investing across their portfolio to make the most of the positive property market and the company is seeking a highly motivated Asset Manager with experience in property management to run and effectively manage the day to day requirements of their portfolio, predominately focussing on commercial with the portfolio split being 75/25..

Strong property management skills are necessary for the role as you will be required to manage every aspect of your individual portfolio, from the financial aspect of business with keeping costs down, to dealing with contractors, legal, planning authorities and everyone in between.
