In May 2020, I accepted the position of Office Manager and moved off the Apprenticeship scheme.As I have grown into the role over the past 4 years, I have had opportunities to work not just ‘in’ the business but ‘on’ the business. My role as Office Manager includes (But not limited to):> Processing rental and sales properties to market via our website and different portals.> Deal with day-to-day inquiries from tenants, landlords, vendors, sellers, and other key stakeholders.> Onboard new landlords and vendors to our book.> Prepare and serve Section 21’s, 8’s and 13’s.> Guide tenants through our referencing and tenancy process on a Fully Managed and Let Only basis.> I am responsible for rental payments to landlords so, rent chasing and arrears management also fall under my book.> Help management deal with VAT returns & bank reconciliation. As time goes on, I hope to learn more about sales progressions and what it takes to run a small business. I also hope to learn more about commercial leases.

I worked for Royal Mail over the Christmas period as a Christmas Casual. This primarily involved the sorting of mail and parcels but, I learned more than I thought I would. With a job that's somewhat repetative, it's important to keep interested so, I was always looking for a new challenge. Also, having to work with a verity of people at different levels in the company certainly helped my communication skills.
