Role Type: Permanent
I am working with a modern and cutting edge property company with a new approach to Business Rates. They are seizing on the brilliant branding they have created, to deliver a superb service to their diverse client-list.
Business Rates forms a key part of their business approach, and so they are looking at two growth hires. These are:
1x Associate Director, targeting an established Business Rates expert
1x Business Rates Surveyor – which could be an existing Surveyor, or an Administrator looking to step up.
Both hires will report directly to the Head of Business Rates - receiving excellent support, and mentorship from an industry expert.
The key duties will clearly vary for each role, but overall comprise:
* Manage the CCA process internally, submitting appeals, and helping to build cases via the CCA process and councils.
* Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of all appeal cases and client interactions.
* Schedule and coordinate meetings, inspections, and surveys.
* Assist in the preparation of client reports, presentations, and other materials.

* Monitor deadlines and ensure timely completion of all administrative tasks.
* Build strong relationships with the Council’s and Valuation Office
* Provide client reports and forecasting as requested.
* Keep abreast of changing case law.
