Role Overview
We are looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Assistant Property Manager to join the Rendall & Rittner team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a long-term career in residential leasehold property management, with the support of an award-winning, people-first business.
You will work alongside an experienced Property Manager, taking day-to-day responsibility for maintaining blocks and developments to a high standard, keeping residents informed, and ensuring compliance and service delivery run smoothly.
ROLE EXPECTATIONS
This is a hands-on, varied role that requires strong organisation, clear communication, and a proactive mindset. You will be dealing with a range of stakeholders — from flat owners and tenants to on-site staff, contractors, and internal departments — so being personable, professional, and solutions-focused is essential.
You will be expected to take ownership of your responsibilities, escalate when appropriate, and continuously develop your knowledge of property management best practice.
What Success Looks Like
You'll be successful in this role if:
- Blocks and developments are well maintained and residents are kept informed
- Service charge accounts, budgets, and insurance claims are accurately managed
- Health and Safety actions are completed promptly following audits
- You're building strong working relationships with residents, contractors, and internal teams
- You're developing your skills and knowledge to progress towards a Property Manager role
How You'll Spend Most Of Your Time
Most weeks, you'll be:
- Assisting in the day-to-day maintenance and management of blocks and developments
- Overseeing day-to-day, contracted, and cyclical maintenance activity
- Managing electronic data, emails, and client files to keep records accurate and up to date
- Responding to flat owners' and tenants' queries, both verbally and in writing
- Issuing service charge and ground rent applications for payment
- Liaising with the credit control department to chase arrears
- Assisting in the preparation of annual budgets, including reserve funding
- Carrying out regular site visits to ensure buildings are in good order
- Circulating information to residents on management and maintenance matters
- Ensuring Health and Safety actions are completed following audits
- Logging insurance claims and working with the insurance department to see them through to resolution
- Supporting on-site staff with day-to-day issues, escalating to HR where required
