Are you an experienced lettings professional who knows how to keep a portfolio running smoothly, landlords informed, tenants supported, and compliance firmly under control?
This is a strong opportunity to join an award-winning independent estate agency in Northampton with an established lettings department and a reputation for delivering a high standard of service across the local property market. The business combines the personal feel of an independent agency with the structure, ambition, and professionalism needed to support continued growth.
As Senior Lettings Portfolio Manager, you will take ownership of a managed portfolio and play a key role in ensuring tenancies are set up correctly, issues are resolved quickly, and landlords receive clear, confident guidance. This role would suit someone who is organised, calm under pressure, and comfortable dealing with everything from arrears and maintenance through to Section Notices and compliance.
What youll be doing day to day Managing a portfolio of residential lettings properties across Northampton and surrounding areas
Handling Section Notices confidently and in line with current lettings legislation
Managing rent arrears, keeping accurate records, and communicating clearly with landlords and tenants
Coordinating maintenance works with contractors, tenants, and landlords
Overseeing tenancy set ups, renewals, move-ins, and associated administration
Ensuring all compliance requirements are monitored, recorded, and followed up
Acting as a reliable point of contact for landlords, tenants, contractors, and colleagues
Resolving day-to-day portfolio issues professionally and efficiently
Supporting landlord retention through proactive communication and strong service delivery
Working closely with the wider lettings team to maintain smooth processes and high standards
What were looking for You will already have solid experience within lettings, property management, or portfolio management and feel confident managing a varied workload. Strong knowledge of Section Notices, arrears processes, tenancy administration, maintenance coordination, and lettings compliance will be important for this role.
Youll be the sort of person who can prioritise effectively, communicate clearly, and stay composed when dealing with more complex tenancy matters. The successful candidate will understand the importance of protecting landlords interests while maintaining a fair, professional, and compliant approach with tenants.
Experience within an independent estate agency would be beneficial, but the key requirement is confidence across residential lettings portfolio management and a genuine commitment to delivering excellent service.
Whats on offer This is an excellent opportunity to join a respected independent agency where your lettings knowledge will be valued. Youll be trusted to take ownership of your portfolio, work as part of a supportive team, and contribute to the continued success of a busy Northampton lettings department.
For an experienced Property Manager, Lettings Portfolio Manager, or Senior Lettings professional looking for a role with responsibility, variety, and progression potential, this is a fantastic next step.
