The role

The role would suit someone with previous residential property-management experience who enjoys building relationships, managing competing priorities and seeing issues through to a successful resolution.
Key responsibilities

- Help manage a portfolio of residential rental properties.
- Act as a day-to-day point of contact for landlords and tenants.
- Build positive, professional relationships and keep all parties informed.
- Respond to maintenance, tenancy and property-management enquiries promptly.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date records on the company’s property-management systems.
