We are currently supporting our prestigious client who is looking for a Property Manager to join their well-established company in Shrewsbury. The purpose of the position is to work closely with your portfolio of clients in your territory (which is in the Shropshire and surrounding areas), ensuring that any issues are being discussed and dealt with effectively. This will mean travelling around the area typically 1 day a week out of the office visiting your sites.
Your Responsibilities Will Be:
* Providing exceptional levels of service to your portfolio of clients.
* Travel to your clients’ sites to conduct basic inspections and monitor onsite works.
* Ensuring compliance with Health & Safety regulations.
* Preparing, agreeing, and issuing service charge budgets, factoring in previous spend and any work that is potentially due.
* Attending area meetings with key representatives.
* Carrying out periodic inspections of the property and preparing site reports for clients, landlords, and residents’ committees.
* Maintaining accurate records of Risk Assessments and their planned frequency for re-inspection.
* Meeting with contractors to ensure contract conditions are adhered to and inspecting works after completion.
* Arranging maintenance of all areas common to all lessees under the terms of the lease.
* Ensuring Management Agreements are in place for all clients and developments.
* Preparing budgets for each property and ensuring they are complete and approved two weeks prior to the billing period.
* Liaising with clients and landlords to agree on the service charge budget.
* Arranging day-to-day repairs and obtaining quotations for works costing over £250 prior to commencement (except in emergencies).
* Arranging provision of additional items required by the development as per the lease terms.
* Undertaking routine fire door inspections to communal fire doors in managed blocks under 18m.
* Arranging maintenance of external and internal decorations.
* Actively seeking new business.
* Supporting in resolving any issues.
* Negotiating on realistic service levels and applicable charges for additional services.
To be considered for this exciting opportunity, we are ideally looking for a strong customer service individual who can effectively and efficiently resolve complaints or issues. Experience in the property or construction sector, or in client account management, is advantageous but not essential. You will need excellent communication and negotiating skills, as well as good literacy and numeracy. This role is field-based for at least 1-2 days a week, and you must have a driver’s license and be flexible in driving to each site within your territory, which is roughly Shropshire and the surrounding locations.
