We're looking for an organised, enthusiastic person to join the team at Francis Stuart.
Whether you've worked in property before or not, we're interested in finding someone with the right attitude. If you're proactive, enjoy keeping things organised, have great attention to detail and like helping people, we'd love to hear from you.
We're a well-established, independent property agency with offices in Plymouth and Tavistock, specialising in residential sales, lettings, HMO management and property management. As our business continues to grow, we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us. If you haven't worked in property before, don't worry. We'll provide the training, support and funding for relevant qualifications to help you build a rewarding career in the industry.
About the Role
This is a varied office-based role supporting our Property Management team and helping to ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. You'll play an important part in looking after our landlords, tenants and contractors while making sure our systems and compliance records are accurate and up to date.
No two days are the same, and you'll have the opportunity to learn different aspects of the business as you develop in the role.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your Responsibilities
- Preparing notices, reports, letters and other documentation for clients.
- Managing compliance records, certificates and maintenance schedules.
- Supporting our Property Managers with day-to-day administration.
- Answering incoming calls and responding to customer enquiries.

- Preparing tenancy packs for new move-ins and tenancy renewals.
- Processing contractor invoices ready for payment.
- Liaising with landlords, tenants and contractors to ensure works and enquiries are dealt with efficiently.
- General administrative duties to support the wider office team.
You'll ideally have:
- A positive, can-do attitude.

- Strong communication and customer service skills.
- Good IT skills and confidence using Microsoft Office.
- The ability to manage your own workload and prioritise tasks.
