Estate Community Manager - London
Department: Flex
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Portman Workwell
Compensation: £35,000 - £38,000 / year
Description
MAPP is a market leader in the management of commercial and mixed-use property, managing around £30+ bn of commercial property and 5,000 occupiers throughout the United Kingdom for a variety of leading funds, REITs and other investors in Real Estate.
In Feb 2022, MAPP acquired RE-DEFINED to broaden the offer and resources required to scale in the fast moving Flex industry.
RE-DEFINED targets opportunities with MAPP’s existing client base - where MAPP already manages the assets, but is also with owners where there is no existing relationship with MAPP. RE-DEFINED now has four locations, but is rapidly growing.
Let’s be honest, most job descriptions read like a recipe without a clear picture of what the final product looks like; so you see a list of ingredients without the image of what it looks like. We want to give you a picture of who we are and the role we are looking to fill and if this sounds exciting and you would like to join us; do apply.
So much of the world of work is about values and culture. We want to work with people who are awesome, in an organisation that makes a difference, do a job that adds value and be rewarded for all our effort and hard work. At RE-DEFINED MAPP, we work towards making this all happen and to be a great place to work.
We are a values driven organisation, you can see that because of our decision to become a B Corp (and the largest real estate consultancy in the UK to do so). We want you to learn and grow, to challenge yourself and be the best you can be. As an organisation, we are growing and have done so for the last 5 years. We promote on average about 10% of our office based roles in a year. We have fun together with events and opportunities to connect, grow and learn with study days as well as giving back to our communities with charity days and fundraising events.
This role gives you the opportunity to be a part of all of this and we would love you to apply. We know that some individuals don’t apply for a role unless they feel that they fit 100% or cover everything. If you would like to work with us and feel that you can do much that this role requires, even if you are not quite 100% there, please give it a go and apply. We are always on the lookout for great character, that is what makes us MAPP people, and if that is you, we would love to meet you!
