This is an opportunity to join an organisation that has helped redefine renting in the UK, creating vibrant communities where customer experience is at the heart of everything they do. With continued investment in both its people and its portfolio, the business offers genuine opportunities to develop your career while making a real difference to residents every day.

People are encouraged to develop, collaborate and bring new ideas, creating an environment where careers flourish. Alongside a supportive culture, the business invests in learning and development, wellbeing initiatives and community engagement, ensuring colleagues feel valued and empowered to succeed.

The role

As a Resident Services Associate, you'll be the face of the community, creating a welcoming environment for residents, visitors and contractors while ensuring the day-to-day operation of the building runs smoothly.

Working as part of a collaborative onsite team, you'll build lasting relationships with residents and take pride in delivering a consistently high standard of service.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Working knowledge of delivering outstanding customer service within hospitality, travel, residential property or a similar customer-focused environment.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
  • The ability to remain organised while managing changing priorities.
  • A positive and approachable attitude with a genuine passion for helping people.
  • Confidence working collaboratively within a team.
  • Good administrative and IT skills.
  • Awareness of health and safety responsibilities.

Why apply?

This is more than a front of house position. It's an opportunity to become part of a business that genuinely values its people and creates environments where residents and colleagues can thrive.

You'll benefit from:

  • A supportive and collaborative culture.
  • Genuine opportunities for career progression.
  • Ongoing learning and development.
  • Wellbeing support and employee benefits.
  • The opportunity to build a rewarding career within one of the UK's leading build-to-rent businesses.
