Do you get excited about optimising the use of property assets for the public good?

Do you want to work on one of London’s most ambitious and exciting Regeneration projects?

Are you up for the challenge of managing a complex and transformational commercial/industrial Regeneration asset portfolio?

Do you want to be a part of a professional team, with a truly flexible working culture that supports a positive balance between work and family life?

The role

Meridian Water is the Council’s £6billion Regeneration Programme that will deliver over 10,000 new homes and thousands of new jobs to Enfield, in an extensive 52 hectares regeneration site adjacent to the Lee Valley Regeneration Park.

You will play a pivotal role in managing a diverse mixed-use commercial portfolio, working with a variety of client groups.

We are looking for an experienced Property Asset Manager, who will manage and carry out as required all commercial property transactions but with a particular focus on the Meridian Water project.

You will act as the key link between Strategic Property Services (SPS) and the Meridian Water Regeneration team with responsibility for managing the relationship between the teams. You will provide and/or co-ordinate all professional property related services to ensure effective and innovative approaches to problems that arise from a large-scale regeneration project are put in place whilst ensuring compliance with all Council policies, procedures and legislation.

You will continually work to maximise income and reduce expenditure from the Council’s commercial property portfolio, raise standards and support excellent service delivery.

The team

Strategic Property Services is a growing team of public sector property professionals, who are passionate about optimising Enfield Council's property assets to create community dividends.  We have created an ambitious new Strategic Asset Management Plan for Enfield, which will deliver on the Council's broadest corporate objectives, including economic growth, diversity, sustainability, well-being and new homes. We manage all 1,100 of Enfield's non-housing assets, from our own operational accommodation, to industrial estates, retail assets and farms in the Green Belt, with a current income of c.£8M p/a from our investment estate. We act as the Council's Corporate Landlord, responsible for ensuring compliance across the portfolio. We undertake all aspects of property asset management, from leases and licences, to disposals, acquisitions, development deals and joint ventures. We are the custodians of all Enfield's Property Information and operate the Council's Asset Management System. We are also growing the Council's capacity and capability in Geographical Information Systems (mapped data). Our aim is to have a comprehensive and qualified property team, to provide Enfield Council with an exemplar professional property service.

The requirements

You will be an experienced Asset Manager/Landlord & Tenant Surveyor with extensive asset/estate management knowledge with proven competency in all aspects of commercial management.

You will need to demonstrate an understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing local government in relation to asset management.

You must have a proven ability to generate new income opportunities as well as the ability to reduce expenditure whilst delivering projects on time and within budget.

The role will also require you to manage internal staff as well as external providers of professional services within an asset management/estate management team
