  • Maintain accurate records and ensure documentation remains compliant and up to date.

  • Build strong relationships with tenants, internal teams and external advisers.

  • Provide practical guidance on lease obligations and contractual matters.

  • Identify opportunities to improve processes and drive operational efficiency.

  • Excellent attention to detail and document management skills.

  • The ability to explain technical or legal concepts clearly to non-specialists.

  • Strong organisational and stakeholder management skills.

  • A collaborative and customer-focused approach.


Professional legal qualifications are welcomed but are not essential.


What’s on Offer?

  • Company pension scheme

  • Enhanced company sick pay

  • Additional leave benefits

  • Free parking

  • Ongoing professional development and career progression opportunities
