Assistant Residential Asset Manager – Mixed-Use Portfolio, London – 2 Year FTC
We're working with a well-established international investment group to find an Assistant Asset Manager to take ownership of a predominately residential portfolio, with some minor commercial and development sites across London. Reporting to the Development Director, this is a genuinely hands-on role with real accountability, where you will manage asset performance, hold third-party managing agents to account, and play a key part in leasing, divestment and capex decisions.
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.
What you'll be doing:
- Tracking income, voids, lease expiries, rent reviews, service charges, and capex across the portfolio, with your own financial models and trackers
- Owning relationships with third-party managing agents
- Leading on leasing activity and supporting asset divestment processes
- Driving annual budgeting and forecasting alongside managing agents and finance
- Preparing asset performance reporting for senior stakeholders
