The opportunity
This is a genuinely exciting opportunity to join the Asset Management team of an independent, forward-thinking property business at their head office in Oxford. This is a company that prides itself on being dynamic rather than corporate, with a close-knit team that genuinely supports one another through a fast-paced, varied working environment.
They are looking for an experienced Block or Property Manager to take on a portfolio of properties across Oxfordshire, bringing strong budgeting and customer service skills to a role where no two days look the same.
About the role
You will be the key point of contact for leaseholders and residents across your portfolio, balancing day-to-day management with longer-term planning around major works, budgets, and compliance. Expect regular site visits, client meetings, and the occasional evening commitment, alongside genuine ownership of how your properties are run.
This is a business that invests in its people, with on-the-job training, career progression, and the IT infrastructure to let you work efficiently and deliver a genuinely high level of service to clients.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage leaseholder correspondence and circulate updates to residents on management issues
- Attend client meetings, including some evening work, taking minutes where required
- Carry out regular site inspections, meetings, and surveys in line with contractual obligations
- Oversee day-to-day, contracted, and cyclical maintenance
- Prepare and agree scopes of works for simple repairs, and support the project management of major works alongside surveyors and other professionals
- Manage Section 20 consultations for major works
- Prepare service charge budgets and manage expenditure against them throughout the year, reporting as required
- Ensure Health and Safety regulations are followed and recommendations implemented
- Handle insurance matters, including claims, renewals, and policy enquiries, in line with regulations
- Co-ordinate legal proceedings relating to service charge arrears and other lease breaches
- Review and develop estate management policy and procedure
- Keep up to date with changes in legislation and working practice
- Support colleagues across the team as needed
