Job description

I am delighted to have partnered with Fusion Students on a retained basis to recruit an Acquisition Manager. Fusion is a growing and dynamic PBSA developer, who will suit someone that is driven by buying sites and rewarded lucratively.

This opportunity is ideal for someone who wants a platform to work autonomously and to be recognised and rewarded for the work they've done. If you want the opportunity to be involved in business growth and develop as the business grows then this role could be an ideal fit for you.

It's an exciting time for Fusion having recently agreed a JV with Cain International; the successful candidate will directly report to the head of acquisitions.

  • Work effectively as part of the Acquisitions Team.
  • Proactively source acquisition opportunities by gaining a comprehensive understanding of sites / buildings within those markets.
  • Active involvement in the planning process for new acquisitions as well as any other areas to enable Fusion to bring forward sites.
  • Assist with any sites that Fusion are disposing of.

What you need

  • Experience and track record in acquiring land or developments in city centres.
  • Preference PBSA experience however candidates will be considered with backgrounds in BTR, Hotels and High-rise schemes etc.
  • Passionate, self-motivated, and keen to learn and develop their skills and experience.

What's in it for you?

  • A basic salary of £60k to £70k ( with flex for the right person)
  • Flexible working
  • Opportunity to travel across the UK
  • Generous bonus structure
