We’re working with a forward-thinking consultancy that’s created a new senior-level opportunity as part of their continued growth across key regional markets. This role offers a rare blend of autonomy, leadership, and exposure to a diverse portfolio of assets — from stalled residential schemes to mixed-use developments and distressed commercial properties.

The Opportunity

• Producing comprehensive reports for lenders and stakeholders on market values, rental values, and exit strategies
• Conducting asset due diligence and proposing innovative solutions for value recovery
• Building trusted client relationships and identifying new business opportunities
• Supporting and mentoring junior team members
• Working directly with receivers, insolvency practitioners, and lenders

What We’re Looking For:

• MRICS qualified with a solid background in valuation and/or restructuring
• Experience delivering secured lending valuations and strategic asset reviews
• Strong commercial acumen with the confidence to advise senior stakeholders
• Proven ability to manage complex instructions across different property types
• A natural communicator who thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment
• Based in or commutable to either Manchester or London

What’s on Offer:

• Salary between £75,000 - £95,000+ bonus structure (Negotiable depending on experience)
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
• Pension scheme
• High level of autonomy and clear progression path
• Supportive, agile team culture
• Access to a strong internal network of specialist surveyors and receivers
