Description
We’re excited to be supporting one of London’s leading not-for-profit housing associations in their search for two Commercial Properties Officers. As a proud member of the G15, they provide quality, below-market rent homes for people who may otherwise struggle to afford them. With more than 60,000 homes and thousands more in development, they reinvest their commercial surplus directly into improving communities and expanding affordable housing across the capital.
Their commercial portfolio plays a vital role in creating vibrant, inclusive neighbourhoods - activating spaces through local enterprise, community facilities, and innovative commercial strategies that balance placemaking with financial sustainability.
The Opportunity
As a Commercial Properties Officer, you’ll be part of a dynamic Commercial Properties team responsible for managing and enhancing a varied commercial portfolio across London and parts of the South East. You’ll deliver a high-quality, compliant, and proactive commercial property management service that not only drives income but also supports community wellbeing and long-term placemaking.
This is a fantastic temp-to-perm opportunity for someone who is passionate about commercial property, enjoys autonomy across a patch, and wants to join an organisation making a genuine social impact.
