Next Chapter Talent is proud to be representing a respected, independent London-based property management firm in the search for a Senior Block Manager . Our client has built a reputation for delivering considered, transparent and consistently high-quality block management across London and the Home Counties. Their portfolio includes a number of complex, high-rise and multi-occupancy developments, and their approach is deliberately relationship-led rather than volume-driven. They are now seeking a Senior Block Manager who brings both technical depth and professional maturity - someone who takes ownership, communicates with authority and operates with quiet confidence. The Role You will take full ownership of a circa 700-unit residential portfolio, with buildings clustered locally to enable effective, hands-on management and presence. The portfolio includes high-rise and complex developments, requiring a strategic, organised and forward-thinking approach. This is a senior position requiring someone comfortable operating at both operational and advisory level - balancing day-to-day delivery with long-term planning, client partnership and commercial oversight. You will be trusted to lead, not just manage.
