You’ll be joining a fast-growing, award-winning residential brand that delivers a hospitality-style experience within a high-end living environment - where service, presentation and community really matter.
The Role
As Assistant Manager, you’ll support the overall running of a modern, design-led residential building - working closely with the senior leadership team to ensure everything operates to the highest standards.
