About the Role
The Senior Lettings Property Manager will join a dynamic, independent estate agency in the North East, known for delivering high-quality, personalised service to clients. The role involves managing a well-maintained portfolio of approximately 50 residential properties, ensuring compliance, proactive management, and exceptional customer service for landlords and tenants.
This is a hands-on position, suited to a professional who takes pride in detail and portfolio management. It is not a trainee role, nor is it a corporate, target-driven environment.

Day-to-day management of a residential property portfolio
-
Ensuring full compliance with regulations (GSC, EICR, EPC, Right to Rent, etc.)
-
Managing maintenance issues and relationships with contractors
-
Handling lease renewals and rent reviews
-
Monitoring arrears and supporting resolution
-
Delivering clear, professional communication to landlords and tenants
The Senior Lettings Property Manager will work within a supportive team and report to the Operations Manager. The portfolio is stable, organised, and well-managed.
Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate will:
-
Possess strong knowledge of lettings compliance and current legislation
-
Be calm, organised, and solution-focused
-
Take ownership and act proactively
-
Value quality over quantity in portfolio management

ARLA qualification is welcomed but not essential if experience is strong

Competitive salary of £26,500–£28,500 depending on experience

A professional and supportive working environment
-
Opportunity to undertake a recognised lettings qualification after 12 months’ service
