• Coordinating property inspections and maintenance tasks, ensuring everything runs smoothly.
• Assisting with service charge budgets and insurance matters.
• Attending meetings and ensuring that our high standards of integrity and professionalism are met in every interaction.

Who you are

• You communicate with confidence, diplomacy, and clarity.
