Are you looking for that new challenge or to step into a larger, more established team to launch forward your career? I am working closely with a national property consultancy in London, looking for someone to join at Associate Director level.

With honesty and integrity at their core - they enjoy working for a variety of clients from major PLC London developers to boutiques as well as most sectors from residential to leisure and commercial - across London and the South East. You will be given a busy pipeline of work to deal with straight away, thrown in the deep-end and given a real opportunity to thrive.
You will be involved in (among other responsibilities):
