SolvTalent has been commissioned by a leading UK multi-site operator to appoint an experienced Estates Manager to help shape, protect, and enhance the performance of a nationally significant property portfolio.

This is an opportunity to genuinely influence estate strategy within a forward-thinking and ambitious organisation.

Key areas of focus:

• Managing rent reviews, lease renewals, regears, and strategic lease negotiations

• Identifying asset optimisation, development, and alternative use opportunities

• Protecting the estate from external planning or infrastructure threats

• Negotiating disposals, acquisitions, and commercial agreements

• Building strong relationships with landlords, developers, and key external partners

• Supporting long-term estate strategy and commercial performance

About you:

• MRICS qualified (or equivalent experience)

• Strong experience managing multi-site commercial portfolios

• Commercially astute with excellent negotiation skills

• Proactive, self-motivated, and comfortable operating autonomously

• Experience within retail, hospitality, leisure, or operational portfolios is highly advantageous

This is a rare opportunity to join a highly regarded organisation with a substantial UK estate and ambitious plans for the future.
