Block Manager – Bromley

Are you a block manager who wants to feel like more than just a number on a portfolio spreadsheet? This well-established block management company in Bromley is looking for an experienced Property Manager to join their team on a permanent basis — stepping into a solid, ready-made portfolio with real support around you from day one.

Backed by a wider group but still very much a close-knit operation, this is a business of just 22 people, where you’ll get to know everyone in the office and actually have a voice. It’s a company that’s growing, modernising its systems, and investing in the people who help it run smoothly — which is exactly why they’re bringing in dedicated recruitment support to find the right person, rather than rushing the process internally.

The Role

You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of 25 buildings and 350 units, covering the full mix of day-to-day block management — from liaising with directors, residents and contractors, to overseeing maintenance, compliance, and service charge matters across your buildings. You won’t be doing it alone: you’ll have an assistant property manager supporting you, and maintenance reporting is streamlined through Fixflo, so you’re not chasing paperwork unnecessarily.

This is a role for someone who likes to be out and about as well as at their desk — site visits are a regular part of the job, so you’ll get real variety day to day rather than being deskbound.

• Manage a portfolio of 25 buildings / 350 units, taking full ownership of your patch
• Supported by an assistant property manager to help share the workload
• Maintenance reporting handled via Fixflo, with the business currently modernising its wider systems
• Build genuine relationships with clients, residents, directors, and contractors — this is a relationship-driven role, not just admin
• Regular site visits across the portfolio, giving a good mix of office and on-site work

What They’re Looking For

• Solid previous experience in block/property management — you’ll know your way around service charges, compliance, and client relationships
• A full UK driving licence and access to your own car, as the role covers site visits across the portfolio
• IRPM qualification isn’t essential — it won’t hold your application back — but if you want to work towards it, they’ll cover TPI costs
• Someone reliable, proactive, and ready to hit the ground running, ideally on a short notice period

Working Hours

Working hours are 8:45am–5:30pm. The role is fully office-based for the first 6 months while you settle in and get to know the portfolio, after which you’ll move to a hybrid pattern.
