ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Assistant Property Manager to join the Rendall & Rittner team.

You will work alongside an experienced Property Manager, taking day-to-day responsibility for maintaining blocks and developments to a high standard, keeping residents informed, and ensuring compliance and service delivery run smoothly.

ROLE EXPECTATIONS

This is a hands-on, varied role that requires strong organisation, clear communication and a proactive mindset. You will be dealing with a range of stakeholders — from flat owners and tenants to on-site staff, contractors and internal departments — so being personable, professional and solutions-focused is essential.

You will be expected to take ownership of your responsibilities, escalate when appropriate and continuously develop your knowledge of property management best practice.

HOW YOU'LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME

Most weeks, you'll be:

• Assisting in the day-to-day maintenance and management of blocks and developments
• Overseeing day-to-day, contracted and cyclical maintenance activity
• Managing electronic data, emails and client files to keep records accurate and up to date
• Responding to flat owners' and tenants' queries, both verbally and in writing
• Issuing service charge and ground rent applications for payment
• Liaising with the credit control department to chase arrears
• Assisting in the preparation of annual budgets, including reserve funding
• Carrying out regular site visits to ensure buildings are in good order
• Circulating information to residents on management and maintenance matters
• Ensuring Health and Safety actions are completed following audits
• Logging insurance claims and working with the insurance department to see them through to resolution
• Supporting on-site staff with day-to-day issues, escalating to HR where required

You will work on a hybrid basis, combining home working with site visits across Manchester, and will be trusted to manage your time and priorities effectively.
