Job Summary Step into a role where your decisions shape the future of urban precincts.
As a Retail Asset Manager in this leading Johannesburg-based property group, you won’t be handed a portfolio and told to manage, you’ll be invited to influence, collaborate, and grow.
You’ll play a pivotal role in flagship developments where retail isn’t just a tenant category but a curated experience.
And unlike siloed corporate roles, you’ll be embedded in an integrated team that spans the full property value chain, from development to leasing to investment, giving you an unmatched platform to lead with impact.
This privately held property investment and development company is behind some of Gauteng’s most progressive mixed-use precincts.
With a focus on creating sustainable, people-focused environments, they’ve earned a reputation for high-quality execution and long-term thinking.
Their projects blend commercial, retail, and lifestyle elements, placing walkability, smart infrastructure, and community at the centre of design.
Operating under a development-led model, they bring together commercial insight and urban sensibility to unlock lasting value.
Working closely with leasing and development teams, you’ll help shape tenant mix strategies, advise on layout optimisation, and ensure a seamless retail offering that aligns with the broader precinct vision.
This is a commercially driven role where you’ll interpret financial models, drive revenue growth, manage tenant relationships, and oversee value-enhancing capex initiatives.
You'll be expected to think like an investor and act like an operator.
The ideal candidate brings at least 5 years’ experience in retail asset management, ideally within mixed-use or precinct-style environments.
You’ll have a strong understanding of leasing dynamics, retail performance metrics, and commercial property finance.
You enjoy engaging with tenants as much as you do analysing numbers.
Most importantly, you’re proactive and entrepreneurial, someone who thrives in a high-accountability, low-ego culture where ideas are welcomed, and execution is everything.
If you’re ready to step out of the back office and into the heart of one of South Africa’s most exciting development pipelines, this role offers both challenge and reward in equal measure.
