Oversee fire safety and health and safety obligations, including fire risk assessments, EWS1 processes, building safety documentation, and monitoring requirements for higher risk buildings.
Review site inspection reports, major works programmes, Section 20 consultations, and long term maintenance planning to ensure statutory and lease compliance.
Act as senior escalation point for complex lease interpretation, resident disputes, service charge queries, and tribunal or legal matters.
Manage service charge financial performance including budget preparation, forecasting, and long term expenditure planning.
Oversee procurement processes, contractor performance, and supply chain governance to ensure quality, compliance, and value for money.
Provide mentoring and technical guidance to property management colleagues, promoting continuous professional development and service improvement.
Support business development activity by identifying portfolio growth opportunities and representing the business professionally at industry events and networking forums.
Maintain accurate property, compliance, and safety records using specialist management systems.

What We Are Looking For

3–5 years+ experience in residential leasehold or block management at advanced practitioner or senior property level.
Knowledge of landlord and tenant legislation, building safety regulation, cladding remediation requirements, and lease interpretation.
Experience managing building safety workflows including fire safety compliance, EWS processes, and remediation programmes.
Strong stakeholder management, negotiation, and communication skills at senior level.
Ability to manage complex caseloads, competing priorities, and regulatory deadlines.
Experience using property management systems such as Qube or similar platforms.
Full UK driving licence with willingness to travel for site inspections.
Professional qualifications such as TPI, AssocRICS, or progress towards relevant property management accreditation are desirable but not essential.
