An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a successful, well-established family-run property business based in the heart of Brighton.
We are looking for an experienced and proactive Property Manager to oversee a portfolio of residential and commercial properties spanning across Brighton, Hove and Worthing.
You will have the autonomy to manage your own workload while working closely with the Director to support the day-to-day running and continued development of the business.
Key qualities we're looking for:
- Previous experience managing residential and commercial properties.
- Strong working knowledge of current property legislation and compliance requirements.
- Excellent organisational and time management skills, with the ability to prioritise a varied workload.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Excellent interpersonal skills with the confidence to liaise professionally with tenants, contractors and external agencies.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to make sound decisions.
- Calm and resilient when dealing with challenging situations, with a positive, solutions-focused approach.
- High level of accuracy and attention to detail
- Strong IT skills, including Microsoft Office and property management software.
- Ability to work independently while also contributing effectively as part of a small team.
- Comfortable using AI tools to improve efficiency and productivity.
This role would suit someone who enjoys working independently, is confident making decisions, and can effectively manage competing priorities. As a small, family-run business, there will be occasions when you will be working in the office on your own, so you should be comfortable with lone working and taking ownership of your responsibilities.
We are happy to discuss working patterns that support your personal commitments, provided they don’t adversely impact the business.
This role is to cover a period of sickness absence within the team, although there might be a possibility of an extension or potentially a more permanent role in the future as the company expands.
To apply, please submit your CV together with a brief covering letter outlining your relevant experience.
Interviews will take place on a date to be confirmed.
