Lettings​/Property Manager

Lettings / Property Manager – Part-Time (School Hours Monday to Friday)

Gravesend

£17 per hour + commission (£35,360 pro rata) | Benenden Private Health Care | Company car (possible) | Office-based

PLEASE NOTE:

THIS ROLE REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 2 YEARS’ RECENT LETTINGS EXPERIENCE.

APPLICATIONS WITHOUT THIS EXPERIENCE WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.

Are you an experienced lettings professional who enjoys running a portfolio properly, building strong landlord relationships, and seeing things work well because you are on top of them?

We are a well-established, independent lettings and property management business based in Gravesend, and we’re looking for a confident, experienced part-time Lettings / Property Manager to take ownership of a well-run portfolio of approximately 80 properties.

The majority of the portfolio is held by one long-standing client, meaning this is a role focused on quality management, consistency and trusted relationships.

Any new business introduced by you will be rewarded with a good commission.

Following a full handover, you will be trusted to manage this portfolio independently — making informed decisions, keeping everything running smoothly, and genuinely making a difference.

This role is ideal for someone returning to work who wants sensible school hours, autonomy, and a role that values experience, judgement and professionalism.

Hours

Monday to Friday: 9.30am – 3.00pm (School Hours)

Unpaid 30-minute lunch break

5 paid hours per day (25 hours per week)

Office-based role (not remote)
