If you’re ready to take your career to the next level, Dandara Living offers the perfect platform. Join us and you’ll bring your expertise to life across a growing Single Family Housing portfolio, supported by a team that’s passionate about creating high-quality homes and thriving communities. Here, you’ll build strong professional relationships, gain exposure across multiple locations, and play a hands‑on role in shaping places people are proud to call home.

About the Role

Based from our Milton Keynes Head Office, this full‑time role focuses on the day‑to‑day operational management of a portfolio of Single Family Homes across Milton Keynes, Bedford, Kent and Cambridge. You’ll manage a portfolio of approximately 450 homes, with regular travel to portfolio locations to carry out property inspections, move‑ins, inventories and check‑ins/check‑outs, ensuring properties are maintained to a high standard and managed in line with company policies and regulatory requirements.

Working closely with the Senior Property Manager, this is a varied, hands‑on role ideal for someone who enjoys being out on site, problem‑solving, and delivering an excellent customer experience. Travel will be planned by location, allowing full days at individual sites rather than moving between locations.

What You Will Do

• Carry out six‑monthly property inspections across the SFH portfolio

• Coordinate and conduct tenant move‑ins, check‑ins and check‑outs
• Complete and review inventory checks at the start and end of tenancies
• Ensure properties are presented to a high standard prior to occupancy
• Compare check‑out conditions against inventories and report damages or issues
• Liaise with contractors, tenants and internal teams as required
• Maintain accurate inspection notes, reports and records on property systems
• Escalate urgent repairs, risks or recurring issues to the Senior Property Manager
• Support ad‑hoc property‑related tasks across the portfolio

What You Will Have

• Experience in a client‑facing property management role
• Background in Single Family Housing, Build‑to‑Rent, PBSA or a leading letting agency (desirable)
• Excellent customer service with strong verbal and written communication skills
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• Ability to work autonomously and confidently manage your workload
• A proactive, professional and collaborative approach
• Strong problem‑solving skills with sound judgement
• A high level of discretion and confidentiality

What We Will Offer You

Today, Dandara Living is one of the UK’s leading designers, developers, and operators of large‑scale residential communities, with a proven track record in creating award‑winning developments.

Our in‑house expertise spans land acquisition, design, development, procurement, site delivery, and property and asset management, allowing us to create sustainable, inclusive places where people genuinely want to live.

Our benefits include:

• Up to £32k depending on experience
• Competitive car allowance
