We are Centrick. We are the go-to experts specialising in all things residential property, with a national presence. ARMA accredited, with an IRPM-trained team, we provide building & estate management services for developments of all sizes, residential and mixed-use, in multiple locations across the UK. Committed to ensuring that residents enjoy peaceful and secure living.
Founded in 2005, today we manage £3billion+ in client assets, we manage 23,000 units (with big plans for 2024!) and have over 250 employees across the group - and counting! Every day we work to achieve our vision: to make customer’s lives better every day, the Centrick way.

So, who are we looking for?
A Building Manager who is a diligent and organised individual, capable of prioritising your work workload. Working collaboratively alongside a Property Manager and responsibility for the smooth running of the development at which you are based. You are comfortable in your ability to develop a detailed knowledge of your property, thus building a strong rapport with both the residents on site as well as the clients, fostering continued trust and confidence in the service Centrick provides.
You have experience at being the first point of contact for residents, as well as monitor and manage all contractors that are required to attend to any issues. You will raise work requests on the system as well as check that works have been completed to then approve invoices when they are presented. You will be familiar with the budget for the development and therefore understand the financial capability for the services required.
You will work towards departmental KPIs set for your specific role. These are based around key aspects of service delivery to ensure we are delivering the very best standards to our customers.
The role will be based at the head office in Birmingham city centre; however, there will be a requirement to attend sites across the portfolio as needed.
