Salary Guide: £28,000
A fantastic chance to be part of this small, independent Property Management Agency who pride themselves on providing a personal, professional service to all of their Landlords and Tenants.
This isn’t an entry-level property position. We’re looking for someone who already understands the day-to-day realities of residential property and can use that experience to become a dependable part of the team.
You’ll be naturally organized, comfortable juggling competing priorities, and someone who gets satisfaction from making sure things are done properly.
Our Client is keen to secure an experienced Property Administrator who thrives on taking ownership of much of the ‘day to day’, vital admin that keeps this well-established property operation moving....
The successful applicant will be a natural problem solver, a fantastic communicator – both verbally on the phone, in person, and via emails, general correspondence.
You must have an excellent eye for detail and a high level of patience and understanding – a genuine ‘calm personality’ is a huge plus.
The role itself is extremely varied; therefore, our Client is keen to attract someone who has experience within a busy Letting Agency.
Our Clients’ Values Are Simple
‘We care deeply
We love the boring stuff
We solve problems creatively
We prioritise communication’
If those sound like things you can get behind, you’ll definitely feel at home with this Company.
The role
Working closely with the Operations Lead and Directors, you’ll take responsibility for a wide range of day-to-day property and tenancy administration.
On any given day, you might be:
- Progressing a tenant application
- Preparing a lease
- Arranging an inventory
- Coordinating a repair
- Processing an invoice
- Responding to a landlord
- Carrying out a viewing
- Making sure the right keys are ready for collection
We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys administration, takes pride in getting things right, and notices when something hasn’t been completed – and then takes ownership of getting it sorted.
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.
You’ll have support when you need it, but we don’t want someone who needs to be given a task list every morning. You’ll need to be comfortable prioritizing your own workload, making sensible day-to-day decisions, and following things through to completion.
What You’ll Be Doing
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing incoming telephone calls and shared email inboxes, ensuring enquiries are responded to or directed appropriately
- Handling day-to-day enquiries from tenants, landlords, and contractors in a friendly and professional manner
- Managing tenant applications from initial enquiry through referencing and progression to an agreed tenancy
- Preparing tenancy agreements and associated documentation, ensuring leases are issued, signed, and ready ahead of move-in
- Coordinating inventories and ensuring these are arranged and completed in time for new tenancies
- Coordinating the administrative side of tenant move-ins and move-outs
- Managing tenancy deposits and associated administration
- Coordinating property maintenance through Fixflo, instructing contractors, and keeping tenants and landlords updated
- Instructing routine maintenance works up to an authorized value of £200 and escalating higher-value or more complex matters where required
- Processing contractor invoices
- Supporting rent processing and other routine financial administration
- Maintaining accurate property, landlord, and tenant records across our systems
- Monitoring outstanding actions proactively, following matters through to completion
- Arranging and carrying out property viewings when required, using your own vehicle to travel to properties (mileage will be covered & cost of viewing related parking will be covered)
- Managing office keys, including signing keys in and out and coordinating collections and handovers
- Dealing with visitors and walk-in enquiries at the office
- Providing occasional cover for other areas of the operation during periods of annual leave
- Supporting the wider team with general office and property administration as required
