Property Lead

This is not a property role where you spend your week managing one asset class from behind a desk. It's an opportunity to take hands-on responsibility across one of the most varied property portfolios you're likely to find in a single role.

I'm working with a major private rural estate to appoint a Property Lead, supporting the management and commercial performance of a diverse portfolio across Wiltshire and Berkshire. Residential. Commercial. Industrial. Heritage.

For somebody building a long-term career in property and estates, that exposure is difficult to replicate. With the business' property arm evolving towards a more geographically focused structure, there is an opportunity to establish yourself as a trusted operator within the wider estate team.

Who We're Looking For The background is deliberately open. You might be: A recently Chartered MRICS Surveyor wanting broader client-side responsibility MCIOB with strong property and estates exposure Working in rural or commercial property management and ready for greater ownership Already client-side but looking for a more diverse portfolio An experienced Estates Surveyor or Property Manager whose experience outweighs the need f...
