What We’re Looking For

• Experience managing student accommodation, campus residences, or multi-unit residential communities.
• Strong leadership skills with a people-first approach.
• Commercial acumen and a track record of optimising occupancy and efficiency.
• Excellent communication and customer service skills, especially with a student demographic.
• Knowledge of housing regulations, tenancy laws, and university partnerships in the UK.

Above all, you’ll be student-centric, proactive, and entrepreneurial – ready to build community and deliver service excellence.
