With two London offices and almost 200 staff UK wide, my client is a hugely successful, family run property management company, that manages a large portfolio of high-end residential properties for their clients.

You will work alongside an Architect, a Building Service Manager, Surveyors, Project Managers and an Interior Designer to ensure projects are delivered to a high standard and on time.

- Comfortable working independently within a small team, but as part of a large multidisciplinary organisation

- Experience working on traditional building types and construction techniques for high-end residences

- Looking to commit yourself to your next role for the long run

- Fantastic English, both written and oral

What you get back
