* Monitoring statutory compliance and ensuring records are always up to date
* Managing residential property and tenant data on property management software
What We’re Looking For
Essential
* Minimum 5 years’ experience in residential property or lettings management
* Strong working knowledge of property legislation, compliance, and best practice
* Excellent communication skills with meticulous attention to detail
* Confident negotiator with a proactive, solutions‑focused mindset
* Good understanding of common building defects and repairs
* Full UK driving licence (role is estate‑based)
Desirable
* Experience with commercial or agricultural tenancies
* Degree‑level education or equivalent
* Membership of a professional body (e.g. RICS, ARLA)
* Experience working on a rural or country estate
* Familiarity with property management software systems
What’s in It for You
* Competitive salary: £38,000–£40,000 DOE
* Working hours: 9:00am–5:30pm (some flexibility required)
* Generous pension: 7% employer contribution
* Private healthcare & life assurance
* Lifestyle benefits including gym discounts, retail savings, and employee support via Sage
* A rare opportunity to join a well‑established estate with a long‑term, people‑first culture
