The Opportunity
I’m currently looking to speak with experienced Shopping Centre Leasing/Agency professionals to join a growing London-based team, working across a strong portfolio of landlord leasing instructions.
The role will focus primarily on shopping centre leasing and agency, with the opportunity to become involved in occupier advisory work for candidates with an interest in developing that side of their career.

Examples of instructions include:
- Major regional shopping centres, including shopping centres in major cities
- Instructions inside and outside the M25
The team operates a flexible resourcing model, responding to client requirements, new instructions and the career development of its people. As you establish yourself within the team and demonstrate your capabilities, there will be the opportunity to take on additional instructions, greater responsibility and a broader client remit.
Key Responsibilities
- Advising landlord clients on shopping centre leasing and agency strategies
- Marketing and letting retail and leisure accommodation
- Identifying and engaging with prospective occupiers
- Managing lease negotiations from initial enquiry through to completion
- Undertaking rental and market analysis
- Preparing letting strategies, reports and recommendations for clients
- Working closely with existing occupiers and other professional advisers
- Supporting wider asset and leasing strategies across individual schemes
- Developing and maintaining strong relationships with landlords, occupiers, agents and other stakeholders
- Contributing to pitches and new business opportunities
- Potentially undertaking occupier advisory work, depending on experience and individual interests
- Working collaboratively with colleagues across the wider business
About You

- Experience advising landlords and/or working on shopping centre instructions
- Strong negotiation and communication skills
- Commercial awareness and the ability to provide clear, practical advice
