Senior Estates Surveyor

The Opportunity

We are working with a large, well-established institutional client to appoint a Client-Side Estates Manager to support the strategic asset management of a substantial and diverse property portfolio across the Midlands. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced estates or asset management professional to move client-side and play a key role in shaping the long-term performance of a major estate.

The Role

Reporting into the Head of Estates / Asset Management, you will take responsibility for the day-to-day management and strategic oversight of a varied estate, ensuring assets are optimised financially, operationally, and in line with wider organisational objectives.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Asset management of a large, mixed-use estate, including commercial, operational, and development assets
• Developing and implementing asset management strategies to maximise value and performance
• Overseeing lease events, rent reviews, renewals, regears, and disposals
• Instructing and managing external property advisors, agents, and consultants
• Preparing business cases, investment appraisals, and asset performance reports
• Supporting development, refurbishment, and repurposing opportunities across the estate
• Ensuring compliance with governance, risk, and ESG requirements
• Building strong relationships with internal stakeholders and occupiers

About You

• Proven experience in estates management or asset management, ideally within a large or complex portfolio
• Background in commercial property, whether from client-side, consultancy, or managing agent environments
• Strong understanding of landlord and tenant matters and property strategy
• Commercially minded with the ability to interpret financial and performance data
• Comfortable managing consultants and working with senior stakeholders
• MRICS qualified or working towards qualification (desirable)

Why Apply?

• Rare client-side role with a major institutional estate
• Opportunity to influence long-term asset strategy rather than purely transactional work
• Broad, varied portfolio offering genuine career development
• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Midlands-based role with flexible and hybrid working

This role would suit a proactive, strategic estates professional looking to make a long-term impact within a respected institutional environment.
