This is a rare opportunity to take full ownership of the lettings function within a well-established independent agency. With a respected local presence and a small, close-knit team, this role is ideal for someone ready to step into a senior position and truly make it their own.

You’ll be leading all front-of-house lettings activity, from the first point of contact with landlords and tenants through to successful key handover. Working alongside a dedicated Maintenance Manager and reporting directly to the owner, you’ll play a pivotal role in the day-to-day success of the business.

Your focus will be on delivering consistently high standards of service and ensuring all lettings run smoothly, compliantly, and with a professional yet personal touch. Whether it’s conducting market appraisals, managing compliance checks, arranging viewings, or overseeing the tenant journey, your experience and initiative will drive the lettings department forward.

You'll also be supported by a growing Lettings Negotiator who’s been with the business for just over a year, with additional part-time support returning to the team in the new year.

This is a hands-on role that offers autonomy, variety, and genuine impact.

What you’ll be doing:

You’ll manage all operational lettings responsibilities, including

• Marketing
• Client updates
• Referencing
• Tenancy progression
• Inventories and check-ins.

The right person will bring confidence to the front-of-house process and enjoy building relationships with both new and long-standing clients.

This role will suit someone Level 3-qualified (or working towards it), with a strong understanding of compliance, legislation, and the practical demands of lettings.

You must have your own vehicle, parking is provided.

The details:

Full-time, Monday–Friday, 9.00am–5.30pm

Salary £27,000–£35,000 depending on experience and qualifications

20 days holiday + bank holidays

On-site parking
