Compliance Operations Manager - Block Management/PropTech
London (Moorgate) / Hybrid
To £50,000
Our client is a fast-growing, venture-backed property management group. They're consolidating established property management businesses onto one modern, tech-enabled platform - freeing their teams from repetitive admin so they can focus on judgement, relationships and service.
Multiple acquisitions completed in year one, with strong investor backing behind the next phase of growth.
The opportunity
Compliance has become one of the heaviest, riskiest and most stressful parts of this industry - and right now, there's no dedicated function owning it properly. This is a brand new, standalone role reporting directly to the founders, built for someone who wants to fix that: not just run compliance, but build the system that makes it run itself.
You'll start by taking full ownership of compliance for one portfolio - every building, every obligation, from fire risk assessments and electrical testing through to the wider building-safety regime. You'll own the calendar, manage contractors, chase remedials to closure, and keep every certificate audit-ready. Doing this by hand first is deliberate - it's how you'll design a system that actually reflects how compliance really works.
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.
From there, you'll work hand-in-glove with the technology team to turn what you've learned into an automated system, then lead the rollout across every other business in the group, one at a time. As the platform takes on the scale, your role shifts from chasing paperwork to judgement calls, negotiation and build - with real scope to grow into leading a centralised compliance team as the group expands.
What you'll own
- End-to-end compliance for your first portfolio - calendar, contractors, remedials, records, all audit-ready
- Building the SOPs and system logic (obligation types, frequency, evidence, risk escalation) alongside the tech team
- Rolling the system out across the wider group, one business at a time
- Group-wide contracts and supplier relationships as volume centralises

What we're looking for
- Real, hands-on UK leasehold compliance experience - fire safety/FRAs, electrical and building safety, statutory testing - you've done the work yourself, not just overseen it
- An owner's mindset: you get on top of messy, high-stakes areas and keep them there
- High attention to detail - in this world, accuracy is safety
- Systems-minded - genuinely energised by turning your own job into a repeatable process, not threatened by it
- The ability to walk into a new team, build trust fast, and take something important off their hands
- Ambition beyond running a compliance desk - you want to change how this gets done industry-wide
- Compliance/fire-safety qualifications (NEBOSH, IOSH etc.) a plus, not a requirement
This is a rare first-of-its-kind hire: real autonomy, direct access to the founders, and a role that grows in scope as fast as you do.
