Block Manager / Senior Block Manager | Croydon | (£40K – £75K) -Exclusive Vacancy
Location: Croydon (preferred) or surrounding areas
Salary: £40,000 – £75,000 DOE
Flexibility: 3 days in the office and 2 days working from home
Sector: Residential Block Management
The Company
We’re working exclusively with a growing, independently owned block management firm based in East Sussex. Established over a decade ago and recently expanding into the residential sector, the business has experienced 60% growth year-on-year, driven by reputation, high-quality service, and minimal outbound business development.
With a portfolio of mid- to large-size blocks (25–195 units), they focus on delivering a premium service over volume. Their portfolio is currently based in the Southeast, with plans to expand into Greater London.
The internal team is collaborative and close-knit, and the business is led by two directors who bring together a strong mix of technical, financial, and service expertise.
The Role
Due to continued growth, they are looking to appoint a Block Manager to join their team. They're open to hiring at Property Manager, or Senior Property Manager level, depending on your experience.
If you're seeking a senior-level salary (£70K+), the ability to support new business development—either through networks or bringing clients with you—will be a key advantage.
Key responsibilities include:
Managing a tailored portfolio of residential blocks (number and complexity based on experience)
Liaising with freeholders, leaseholders, and residents
Organising and overseeing repairs, maintenance, compliance, and service charge budgeting
Managing onboarding of new sites and supporting transitions
Acting as a key point of contact for clients, delivering consistently high levels of service
What They’re Looking For
The company is looking for committed, self-sufficient professionals who want to be part of something long-term. They’re open-minded on experience level, but they do place a premium on attitude, accountability, and emotional intelligence.
Ideal candidate qualities:
Strong organisational skills and common sense
Able to self-manage and work proactively
Willing to take responsibility and own mistakes
Comfortable saying “no” when necessary
Emotionally resilient and client-focused
TPI qualification is desirable but not essential
Junior candidates must show eagerness to learn and grow
Culture & Working Environment
The business offers a rare mix of established structure and start-up energy in their residential block division.
What sets them apart:
A supportive, team-first culture
Down-to-earth leadership with clear goals
No micromanagement—just trust and accountability
A strong commitment to employee growth and long-term development
Office-based working preferred, but willing to be flexible for the right hire
