Inventory Clerk
Cambridge Area
Flexible Hours
£27,000 per annum FTE
Are you organised, observant and looking for a property role that offers plenty of variety, independence and the opportunity to be out and about rather than sitting behind a desk all day?
We are working with an established and highly regarded property company based just outside Cambridge to find an Inventory Clerk to join their friendly and experienced team.
Working alongside and supporting the Property Management team across a varied portfolio of residential and student properties in Cambridge and the surrounding areas, this is a hands-on role where attention to detail and good communication are key.
The company places real importance on both customer service and looking after its people. Their values of teamwork, respect, integrity, commitment, empowerment and professionalism are at the heart of the business, alongside a genuine focus on employee wellbeing and creating an environment where people feel valued and supported.
The company is happy to consider both full-time and part-time applicants, with flexibility around working arrangements for the right person.
The Role
This is a varied role supporting the Property Management team and will see you spending much of your time out visiting properties across Cambridge and the surrounding areas. Your main focus will be carrying out inventories and check-outs, carefully inspecting properties and accurately recording their condition. You will also support the team with property viewings when required.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
