Our client is a global real estate investor with a growing UK rental living portfolio, run through its own in-house operating platform. The business is well capitalised and plans to keep expanding the platform over the coming years.

Our client is looking for an Asset Manager with a technical or capital expenditure background to join the investment team and support asset management across the whole lifecycle, from acquisition and lease-up through to repositioning, refinancing and sale. The core of the job is identifying and prioritising CapEx projects that either protect or add value, delivering them on time and on budget, and keeping the portfolio compliant, including with the Building Safety Act. The role also works on asset business plans, revenue and NOI initiatives, oversight of property management proposals, physical product strategy, cost controls on capital works, and technical due diligence on acquisitions.

It is a strong move for someone from the technical or project side who wants to step into real estate investment. The successful candidate will work closely with senior investment professionals and build experience in transactions, debt, financial appraisals and investment strategy.

• Technical, development or consultancy experience in real estate, ideally in the living sectors.
• Strong working knowledge of the Building Safety Act and related regulation.
• Good numerical ability and solid Excel, PowerPoint and written communication skills.
• A proactive, team-oriented and commercially curious approach, plus a willingness to travel to assets.
• A relevant degree or technical credentials (desirable).
