This is a hands-on role where you'll own live lettings and lease events from day one.

What you'll be doing
- Letting vacant commercial units, briefing and managing agents, running viewings, qualifying tenants, and negotiating heads of terms to completion.
- Running lease events: rent reviews, lease renewals and re-gears, comparable research, notices, and instructing solicitors.

- Keeping buildings let and lettable, instructing and overseeing contractors on repairs and communal areas.
- Inspecting the portfolio regularly across all three counties.
