Risk and Compliance Management:
* Identify risks, maintain a risk register, and develop solutions to mitigate them.
* Ensure 100% compliance with statutory inspections, remedial works, and health and safety standards.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for an experienced and motivated Property Manager who has:
* Proven experience managing investment property programmes, including project management of capital expenditure (Capex) and property projects.
* Demonstrated ability to create tender documents and accurately price works.
* Degree-level qualification (RICS, City & Guilds, NVQ) or equivalent in a construction trade.
* Minimum 5 years of experience in project management and tendering processes.
* Strong financial acumen for managing budgets and delivering value for money.
* Excellent understanding of building regulations and compliance standards.
