Most property management roles will burn you out and leave your career exactly where it started.
This one won't.
Henderson Asset Management is scaling its property division with a clear intent: build the most trusted, most proactive asset management operation in the country.
We don't believe property management should be reactive, chaotic, or built on burnout.
We believe it should be strategic, proactive, tech‐enabled, and client‐obsessed.
We're not building a rent roll.
We're building a reputation.
As Senior Property Manager, you'll take ownership of a high-quality portfolio and operate like a true asset manager; protecting value, optimising performance, and elevating the client experience at every touchpoint.
You'll lead from the front, raise the standard, and help shape the systems that define how Henderson does property management at scale.
Who This Is For
This role is built for an experienced property manager who's done the hard yards on a rent roll and is ready to step into something that actually matches their ability.
You Are
A portfolio manager with a proven track record: you've run a book well and you know it
Someone who thinks like an investor, not just an operator
Direct and confident in your communication: you don't hide behind emails
Structured and organised: allergic to sloppy work
Pressure‐tested: high pace sharpens you, it doesn't rattle you
Ready for influence, not just tasks
You Are NOT The Right Fit If
You need constant direction to stay on track
You avoid difficult conversations with landlords or tenants
"Good enough" is a phrase you're comfortable with
What You'll Be Accountable For
Portfolio Ownership
Manage a high-quality residential portfolio with proactive strategy, zero surprises,
and full transparency to landlords
Conduct routine, entry, exit, and condition reporting with precision and on time — every time
Manage maintenance, compliance, and risk with speed and sound judgement
Leasing Performance
Oversee a leasing officer dedicated to your portfolio
Client Relationships
Be the trusted advisor to landlords: transparent communication, strategic guidance, total transparency
Deliver property performance updates that are substantive and commercially useful, not just administrative
Team & Systems
Coach and support junior team members: lift capability and maintain accountability
Identify workflow inefficiencies and build scalable systems that outlast your own involvement
Stay ahead of QLD tenancy legislation and compliance requirements: zero shortcuts, zero grey areas
What Good Looks Like At 90 Days
Portfolio fully audited, gaps identified, and action plan in place
All inspections current and compliant, zero outstanding arrears without active management
Landlords proactively contacted and relationship established on every property
At least one system or process improvement identified and implemented
Junior team members receiving structured support and clear feedback
Hard Requirements
Current QLD real estate licence (Certificate of Registration minimum, full licence preferred)
Minimum 3 years managing a residential property portfolio
Hands‐on experience with PropertyMe or equivalent property management software
Demonstrated knowledge of QLD tenancy legislation and the RTRA Act
Based in or within commuting distance of South Brisbane: local Brisbane market knowledge is essential
Where This Role Can Take You
Manager of Property Management: as we grow the Brisbane rent roll
Business Development Manager: targeting landlords who want institutional‐grade management
State Lead role: as we expand interstate
What Henderson Offers
At least 10% above market base salary + bonus
Quarterly strategy retreats in the Hunter Valley: reset, reconnect, realign
Annual international trips (Bali, Japan, Whistler): we celebrate performance properly
Client appreciation events and Sydney Harbour yacht cruises: this is not your average PM firm
Elite systems and tech stack: we invest in tools that make your work sharper
High‐performance culture: energy, accountability, ambition: no passengers, no politics
What We Value
Ownership: you take responsibility for outcomes, not excuses
Standards: you hold the line on quality even when no one is watching
Growth: you're always looking for a better way to do your job
How To Apply
1. Your CV — keep it current and relevant
2. A short video (2–3 minutes) telling us: your current portfolio size, your biggest management challenge and how you resolved it, and why Henderson over any other PM role you could apply for right now
3. Your current or most recent leasing and arrears stats if available
We don't run a 4‐week process.
If you're the right person, you'll know in under a week.
