At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that’s who we’re doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you’ll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It’s all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.

Our property assets team comprises professional staff specialising in estate and asset management. The team is both friendly and holds a wealth of property experience that we are keen to share with you. The team are responsible for the strategic and day to day management of the Council’s property estate, including the properties it occupies for service use and its commercial portfolio.

Utilising the Council’s land and property to generate an increased commercial return and help with its place shaping aspirations means you will support making decisions that have real impact.

**Your next role**

We are looking for a Senior Commercial Property Surveyor. It is a chance to operate on a scale that you will find in few other local authorities. The commercial portfolio produces £11m of annual revenue and is an important resource for the Council. With a range of interests such as headquarter offices, trade parks, industrial units and village centres, there’s plenty of variety and scope to use your skills to add value and make a real difference to the performance of the portfolio.

This exciting new role has been established to help deliver our pipeline of disposals bringing forward Council owned land for sale to enable new development and generate capital receipts from land disposals. In addition there is plenty of scope to realise value by identifying additional disposal opportunities recognising the number of commercial assets the Council owns. You will offer expert advice to senior leadership and elected members on all property related matters ensuring we anticipate and manage risk effectively and that our decision making process is robust and well informed.

**Your background**

It is essential that you are a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors with some post qualification experience and knowledge of dealing with commercial land and property and project management techniques. We expect that you will bring a proven record of accomplishment from within the property sector with practical experience of dealing with land and property disposals including the appointment of agents and specialist advise to support sales within public sector procurement guidance.

You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act - for the effective performance of a customer-facing role).

Must have the ability to travel around the Borough.

**Your next package**

As an employee, you will receive a diverse and exciting environment in which to work, encouraging creativity and innovation whilst recognising the need to support ongoing personal development and a flexible work life balance.

This role is 37 hours per week but we operate an agile working policy, allowing you to manage your own diary and work flexibly, including off-site/remote working.

Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

**Your next steps**

Potential applicants are sometimes put off if they don’t meet 100% of the requirements. We think individual experience, skills and passion make all the difference, so if you meet the majority of the criteria, we would still love to hear from you.
