If so, this could be your perfect opportunity to make a significant impact within a leading academic institution.

**Background**

Our Property Team is responsible for managing the University’s multi-million-pound Investment property portfolio. The income and capital generated from the portfolio is reinvested to fund core research and academic functions within the University. Although this portfolio is separate to the University’s operational estate, it is strategically adjacent, and managed to generate ethical and sustainable income, capital receipts, and maximize value through commercial partnerships and collaborations.

Our work encompasses commercial land development, asset management, and the daily management of a diverse portfolio of circa 250 properties and property related interests across all asset classes.

Additionally, we serve as an in-house, RICS-accredited real estate knowledge bank. We provide expertise on property and land-related matters to both academic schools and University leadership, ensuring optimal value and safeguarding the University’s interests. This includes property valuation expertise for investment and development viability, asset valuations for financial accounting, disposals and acquisitions, business rates, and buildings insurance.

**You will have**:

- Proven administration and organisational skills, across a range of sectors ideally within a commercial and residential property environment having a clear attention to detail
- Ability to multi-task, prioritise and react to changing circumstances/ problem solve in a fast paced environment
- Experience of commercial property administration, including maintaining commercial tenancy records and CAFM systems.
- Ability to communicate effectively, both orally and in writing with a diverse range of stakeholders including Tenants where appropriate.
- Excellent computer skills, particularly Word, Excel and Outlook.
- Numerate and confident operating financial systems

**Why Join Us?**

This is an exciting opportunity to work within a thriving, forward-thinking university environment. You’ll have the chance to influence and shape a key asset portfolio, collaborating with a range of teams and stakeholders to drive the performance of commercial property assets. The role offers room for professional development, and the chance to be part of a supportive and dynamic work environment.

If you are looking for a challenge and want to make a tangible impact in the property sector while working in a vibrant academic environment, we’d love to hear from you.

If unsure of criteria, this can be taken from the person specification.

**Interview date: TBC 13th or 17th October**
