In this role within our established Asset Management team, you will take responsibility for four Shopping Centres across the UK, as well as supporting the effective management of other assets within our retail portfolio. You’ll play an essential role in making key decisions for shopping centre management, identifying opportunities to enhance cash flow and asset value, with a particular focus on driving NOI growth across your portfolio, and assisting in the full property management lifecycle, with dedicated in‑house PM and FM resources.
You will be expected to deliver concise, accurate and impactful reporting, present confident pitches to both internal and external stakeholders, offer top‑tier asset management insights, and drive the profitable revenue growth and development of your assets to new highs.
We are looking for someone who understands that these are complex, evolving centres that require resilience, creativity and a hands‑on approach. Each has its own challenges and strategic opportunities, and we want someone energised by the chance to reposition and unlock value where others might see obstacles. You will have complete ownership of your assets’ performance and are expected to coordinate and direct the in‑house teams (PM/FM/Leasing) to ensure delivery, even though formal line‑management responsibility sits elsewhere.
