PROPERTY MANAGER
- Rendall & Rittner • Competitive • Hybrid - London (Royal Arsenal)
ROLE OVERVIEW
You will take ownership of Peartree Village (along with another Property Manager), a large and evolving residential estate of around 1,500 homes, with the development set to grow to more than 2,000 homes as phased handovers continue. This is a great opportunity to manage a complex, high-profile portfolio where your ability to build strong relationships, stay organised and keep standards high will make a visible difference to residents, clients and colleagues alike.
This is a hybrid role, with 1 day on site each week and 1 day each month in our Royal Arsenal office, giving you a strong balance of presence on the development and flexibility in how you work. Peartree Village is well located between North Greenwich and Charlton, with North Greenwich Station just 0.8 miles away, offering easy access to Canary Wharf and the City via the Jubilee Line and Thames Clipper.
You will join a people-focused business that combines strong operational support with a commitment to service, transparency and continuous improvement. If you enjoy managing busy estates, handling complexity with confidence and creating well-run communities where residents feel informed and supported, this role will give you the platform to do exactly that.
ROLE EXPECTATIONS
Most days, you will be coordinating the smooth day-to-day management of a busy residential estate, keeping on top of resident queries, contractor performance, compliance activity and client communication. You will balance operational detail with longer-term planning, making sure services are delivered well while supporting the ongoing transition of a growing, phased development.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

- You keep the estate running smoothly, with strong oversight of services, standards, budgets and on-site issues.
- You stay ahead of phased handovers, helping new areas transition effectively into management without losing focus on the existing estate.
- You handle resident concerns calmly and professionally, resolving issues efficiently and with a strong customer focus.
- You maintain accurate records and clear reporting, giving clients confidence that the estate is being managed proactively.
- You spot opportunities to improve service, reduce friction and raise the overall experience for residents across a complex and growing development.
HOW YOU'LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME
- Managing the day-to-day operations of Peartree Village, ensuring communal areas, services and estate standards are maintained.
- Responding to resident and client enquiries, resolving issues and keeping communication timely, clear and professional.
- Overseeing contractors and managing service delivery, including monitoring performance, standards and follow-up actions.
- Supporting budgets, expenditure monitoring and invoice approvals, while keeping a close eye on value for money.
- Carrying out regular site inspections and working with on-site teams to address maintenance, health and safety and estate presentation matters.
- Coordinating phased handover activity, working with internal and external stakeholders to support a smooth transition as the estate grows.
WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR
- You are a confident property professional who enjoys managing large, active residential communities with multiple moving parts.
- You are organised, calm under pressure and comfortable prioritising competing demands without losing attention to detail.
- You are people-focused in your approach and know how to build credibility with residents, clients, developers and contractors.
- You take ownership, communicate openly and prefer to solve problems before they escalate.
- You enjoy being visible on your portfolio and understand the value of balancing strong site presence with effective hybrid working.
EXPERIENCE THAT HELPS
