Assistant Commercial Property Manager | Industrial & Commercial Real Estate
Progression into managing own Commercial Portfolio
An excellent opportunity for an organised, detail-oriented individual looking to build a long-term career in Commercial Property Management.
We're representing an established, commercial real estate agency with a close-knit team and highly experienced, hands-on directors who are genuinely invested in developing their people.
Unlike many Assistant Property Management positions, this opportunity isn't about remaining in a support role indefinitely.
The goal is to train and develop you into a capable Commercial Property Manager, eventually managing your own portfolio of commercial properties.
The Prospect
You'll work closely with experienced directors and management who are prepared to invest their time, energy and resources into your development.
Starting with the fundamentals of commercial property administration, compliance and inspections, you'll gradually build the technical knowledge and confidence required to take on greater responsibility.
Your initial responsibilities will include:
- General property management administration and database management
- Assisting with lease documentation, renewals and expiries
- Supporting commercial property compliance and essential services requirements
- Coordinating maintenance and communicating with contractors
- Assisting with arrears reporting and tenant correspondence
- Conducting property inspections and preparing reports
- Liaising with commercial landlords, tenants and stakeholders
- Supporting outgoings, budgeting and financial reporting
- Gradually taking ownership of properties as your experience develops
Who We're Looking For
Although a background in commercial or residential real estate is prefered, you don't need to have extensive experience to be considered!
We're particularly interested in candidates who bring strong administration skills,
attention to detail and a genuine desire to develop a career in commercial real estate.
Ideally, you'll offer:
- Strong administration, organisation and time-management skills
- Excellent attention to detail and accuracy
- Confident written and verbal communication
- A proactive attitude and willingness to learn
- Ability to manage competing priorities and follow through on tasks
- Confidence using Microsoft Office and general business software
- A collaborative, reliable and skilled approach
- An interest in property, commercial real estate or asset management
- Previous experience in property administration, residential property management or commercial real estate will be highly regarded, but isn't essential for the right person.
A driver's licence and any required real estate qualifications will be advantageous.
What's on Offer?
- $60,000–$70,000 + Super starting salary
- Potential to progress towards $80,000–$90,000+ within your first year, subject to development, performance and portfolio responsibilities
- Direct mentoring from experienced, hands-on directors
- Genuine training across all aspects of Commercial Property Management
- Close-knit boutique team where your contribution is recognised
- Exposure to industrial and commercial property assets
- Clear progression towards managing your own commercial portfolio
- Long-term career development and earning potential
- Supportive management genuinely willing to invest in your success
