Property Manager - Manchester City Centre

Salary: £24,000-£28,000 (DOE) + office commission scheme

Hours: Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm. Approx. one Saturday per month (11am-4pm) with a weekday off in lieu.

Benefits: 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, opportunity to apply for ARLA qualifications with funded membership (subject to success), regular team incentives.

We're looking for a switched-on, highly organised Property Manager to join a busy, fast-paced city centre estate agency team. You'll be managing a portfolio of rental properties on behalf of private landlords and acting as the go-to between tenants, landlords, and contractors.

If you thrive on variety, enjoy problem-solving, and can keep calm when the unexpected pops up (because let's be honest… property always has surprises), this will be right up your street.

What You'll Be Doing

Being the key liaison point between tenants and landlords

Handling maintenance issues, inspections, repairs, and enforcing tenancy rules

Preparing and issuing legal documents such as tenancy agreements and notices

Keeping property files up to date and ensuring compliance across the board

Reviewing rent levels and negotiating increases or reductions in line with market trends

Checking adverts and marketing materials are accurate for remarketing

Reviewing inventories and checkout reports, negotiating deductions, and processing deposits

Managing tenancy change requests in line with industry guidelines

What You'll Need

At least 12 months' experience in Property Management

Strong organisational and time-management skills (spinning plates is basically the job)

Solid negotiation abilities and confident communication

Proficiency with Microsoft Office — especially Excel

A proactive, problem-solving mindset

A calm, empathetic approach when dealing with tricky situations

The ability to work independently as well as part of a team

Flexibility, positivity, and willingness to muck in when needed

Why This Role?

You'll be joining a collaborative, city-centre team with a strong set of values: teamwork, honesty, client care, and genuine love for the local area. If you want a role where you're trusted to get on with things, supported to develop, and surrounded by people who care about what they do, this is it.
