Central Manchester
£32,000 - £36,000 + Performance Bonus
We're recruiting an Assistant Manager for a standout premium brand redefining modern renting in central Manchester.
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who brings great energy, sharp standards and real ownership of both people and place.

You'll lead concierge and housekeeping teams, manage standards across the building, and play a key role in resident experience, facilities, efficiency and cost control.
