About Locations London

Locations London is a specialist property sourcing agency serving the media and entertainment industries. We connect high-end properties and land with major film, TV, and event productions, working with some of the biggest names in the business.

The Role

We’re looking for a motivated and commercially minded individual to lead on sourcing and acquiring new properties, land, and development opportunities for filming and events. You'll play a critical role in expanding our location library with everything from high-end residential homes to industrial spaces and large-scale studios.

This is a fast-paced, dynamic role where success is directly rewarded through an uncapped commission structure. You’ll work closely with the Director and play a key part in sourcing sites for clients such as Netflix, Amazon, Apple, and Disney.

Key Responsibilities

• Proactively source new commercial properties (e.g., warehouses, offices, industrial units) for filming and event use
• Identify and pursue new land and studio development opportunities across Greater London and the South East
• Conduct market research on industrial and land availability, including off-market leads
• Build and maintain strong relationships with landlords, developers, agents, and asset managers
• Collaborate with the Director to match opportunities with studio clients’ needs
• Support wider business objectives by identifying freehold and development prospects

What We’re Looking For

• Strong self-starter with a proactive, deal-focused mindset
• Comfortable and confident communicating via phone and email
• Demonstrated ability to source and convert new property leads
• Familiarity with tools such as LandInsight and Promap (or willingness to learn)
• Ideally degree-educated (or equivalent) in a property or media-related field
• Passion for both the property and media industries
• Team player who can also work independently and take ownership of projects

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary
• Uncapped commission structure (commission paid the same month revenue is received)
• Clear earning potential, with commissions based on a percentage of revenue generated
• Opportunities to work on exciting projects for global media clients
• Collaborative, entrepreneurial work environment

If you’re excited by the intersection of property and film and thrive on uncovering unique spaces and off-market deals, we’d love to hear from you.
