The Ideal Candidate
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, personable, organised and keen to build a successful career
You might be a recent graduate looking for your first professional opportunity, or someone with a little experience in marketing, customer engagement, community projects or the property sector who is ready for their next challenge
You should be comfortable communicating with different people, confident using digital platforms and willing to get involved in a variety of tasks
This is not a position where you will be doing the same thing every day. One day you could be creating marketing content or visiting a completed refurbishment project, while another could involve supporting a community initiative, attending a resident meeting or preparing information for a client presentation
