MORE ABOUT RINGLEY

Ringley is a multi-award winning multi-practice property team based in Camden Town, Manchester, and Cardiff Bay comprising Chartered Surveyors, Engineers, Solicitors, Valuers, PropTech, Lettings, Block Management, and Final Accounts and staff on-site throughout the UK. Ringley’s success would be impossible without our passionately committed team. We expect 5-star service and to achieve this look after our people.

Ringley's customer focus sets a benchmark in the industry; we support people who live in communal environments: leaseholders in newly built homes, owners who have bought their freehold, and those in the private rented sector.

All our teams whether they are Relationship Managers, Property Managers, Legal Officers or Chartered Accountants have to be creative problem solvers to deliver solutions to those who come to us for advice.

In property, it is all about helping owners understand their block accounts, trace repairs, plan for decorations, buy the freehold, extend their lease and day-to-day what is theirs to repair and what will be covered by the service charge... At Ringley, each Leasehold Block Portfolio Manager is supported by their own Legal Officer and Final Accounts Officer and is supported by our Treasury and Customer Support Teams.

Right from the start we have always looked to recruit people who we could imagine giving up their time to visit granny. To us, this meant respect, listening, and learning. We later wrote these up as our core values and in 2010, we introduced a 'money back guarantee'.

A Junior Relationship Manager is a boundary-spanning role, supported by a Legal Officer, our Inbound, Outbound, and Finance Helpdesk Teams you will be the face that homeowners look to so they can understand their building accounts, trace repairs, plan for decorations, buy the freehold, extend their lease and day-to-day management.

- Educated to at A level or degree standard

Responsibilities

What You’ll Be Doing Day To Day

- Thinking about your portfolio, the contractors that work on it, the equipment to be looked after, the insurance you will need to have in place, the housekeeping standards to maintain, and a strategy for cyclical works.

- Meeting with Clients to advise them what should happen when (compliance & planned maintenance) and help them make decisions,

- Meeting Contractors on site to negotiate contracts, check work done, and arrange quotes.

- Auctioning issues from site reports, meetings, and defects reported

- Considering planned preventive maintenance from a building pathology view as well as what the lease allows, checking statutory consultation requirements and funds available.

- Managing building risks: Insurance, Asbestos, Fire, Health & Safety, Water Chlorination, Plant, Flues etc…
