Due to continuing growth, we are looking to strengthen our team with a Senior Property Manager, tasked with caring for a few medium-large developments (circa 700 units) and being involved with managing our team of 35 and growing. We are on the lookout for someone who enjoys property management and wants to be given the breathing space to provide an excellent service, rather than being overloaded with thousands of units. We need someone with at least 5 years of prior experience as a Block Property Manager, preferably large estates and high-rise buildings and those with previous/ongoing cladding remediation too. As an experienced Property Manager, you'd be well aware of the day-to-day duties, which would include: Oversee the smooth running of the portfolio. Attend and prepare for regular meetings with residents/directors. Conduct routine inspections and schedule maintenance. Chair and minute meetings as appropriate and take actions resulting from these. Budget and financial control our system is a big help with this. Build and maintain relationships with all stakeholders. Resolving of queries received on the portfolio. Helping to acquire new business (where commission can also be earned). Assisting with complaints handling (thankfully we don't get many at all but can't always please everyone!). We are very much a team that works closely and learns from each other every day, as no two days in this industry are ever the same. We excel because our focus is on customer service, so we keep unit numbers per Property Manager lower than any other agent, to ensure each block gets a good level of attention and our staff aren't overworked. We aren't a national agent and will never be as the service is never close to that of a good, local agent. Other Ideal Traits Are: Excellent knowledge of financial administration (service charge accounting). Effective numeracy and data entry skills. Experience in handling cladding replacement work/building safety fund applications. Excellent interpersonal skills. Ability to maintain a high level of accuracy. Ability to meet deadlines and grasp the urgency of departmental activities. Experience in managing staff. TPI level 3. Personal Skills/Attributes: Maintaining strict confidentiality Demonstrate sound work ethics Flexibility Be assertive and dynamic Be deadline driven Maintaining relationships with all stakeholders Can work independently Problem analysis and solving Professionalism Full drivers licence and ideally own car A Little More About Us We have grown considerably in the last 5 years but have done so carefully, choosing our clients and setting reasonable fees we don't low ball to win business. We are keen not to make the same mistakes as the big agents and are open to ideas and innovation to help improve our services and the work environment of the team. If that sounds interesting, then please apply!

Senior Technology Delivery Manager, Hands On Technical Background, Proven End to End Project Delivery Experience, AI, SDLC, Data, Global, Professional Services, PM Certified, Please read in FULL before applying, Remote Senior Technology Delivery Manager / Senior Digital Project Manager / Senior Software Delivery Project Manager required to work for a Professional Services business based in Central London. However, this is Global role that may require some Global travel (fully expensed) but most of the work can be done from the comfort of your own home. We need someone from a hands-on technical background (ideally development within digital technology products) who is passionate about technology, who understands technology and spends time looking out for what is new in the market. Whether this be gaining new qualifications / certifications or being in touch with modern technology via forums etc. We also need you to have OWNED Projects, with proven end to end Project Delivery experience. This is NOT an Infrastructure related Project Manager role. We need Development Driven / SDLC , SaaS Project Delivery experience. Infrastructure will not cut it for what our client needs here The role is a hardened, solid Senior Project Management position, but we need this person to almost be lighting up rooms when discussing project delivery with C-Level / Partner Level people within the business. You will also be influencing key vendors with your ideas, talking about modern digital related technology, products, AI, SDLC etc. They want you to think, wow and impress the business but to also demonstrate leading the way. They really want you to own whatever project you are running with next to zero hand holding along the way (although there will be support of course!) There is a written side to it too, where you will be writing and designing high level, strategic technical documents for the business to digest, prior to the Project executions. There will be several meetings that you will be running with key stakeholders in both the business and technology, where you would have to be confident enough to hold your own, run the meetings and be prepared to be challenged by sometimes difficult stakeholders on occasions! They want this to be mainly about business outcomes and orientation (via technology). Be passionate about what impact the projects will have on the business and be energetic about articulating what positive impacts these will have on the business. We can look at Digital, Change and Transformation Project / Programme Managers but you must have a technical background. You will preferably come with experience across multiple companies, with some Global involvement and an appreciation of different Global cultures and behaviours when working with a Global remit. Also, as this has global coverage, there may be some early / late calls. You must be prepared for this.

Senior Technology Delivery Manager, Hands On Technical Background, Proven End to End Project Delivery Experience, AI, SDLC, Data, Global, Professional Services, PM Certified, Please read in FULL before applying, Remote Senior Technology Delivery Manager / Senior Digital Project Manager / Senior Software Delivery Project Manager required to work for a Professional Services business based in Central London. However, this is Global role that may require some Global travel (fully expensed) but most of the work can be done from the comfort of your own home. We need someone from a hands-on technical background (ideally development within digital technology products) who is passionate about technology, who understands technology and spends time looking out for what is new in the market. Whether this be gaining new qualifications / certifications or being in touch with modern technology via forums etc. We also need you to have OWNED Projects, with proven end to end Project Delivery experience. This is NOT an Infrastructure related Project Manager role. We need Development Driven / SDLC , SaaS Project Delivery experience. Infrastructure will not cut it for what our client needs here The role is a hardened, solid Senior Project Management position, but we need this person to almost be lighting up rooms when discussing project delivery with C-Level / Partner Level people within the business. You will also be influencing key vendors with your ideas, talking about modern digital related technology, products, AI, SDLC etc. They want you to think, wow and impress the business but to also demonstrate leading the way. They really want you to own whatever project you are running with next to zero hand holding along the way (although there will be support of course!) There is a written side to it too, where you will be writing and designing high level, strategic technical documents for the business to digest, prior to the Project executions. There will be several meetings that you will be running with key stakeholders in both the business and technology, where you would have to be confident enough to hold your own, run the meetings and be prepared to be challenged by sometimes difficult stakeholders on occasions! They want this to be mainly about business outcomes and orientation (via technology). Be passionate about what impact the projects will have on the business and be energetic about articulating what positive impacts these will have on the business. We can look at Digital, Change and Transformation Project / Programme Managers but you must have a technical background. You will preferably come with experience across multiple companies, with some Global involvement and an appreciation of different Global cultures and behaviours when working with a Global remit. Also, as this has global coverage, there may be some early / late calls. You must be prepared for this. There will be give and take with times, along with some flexibility if things are becoming quite taxing.
