Estate Manager 
📍 Yorkshire

Lead the Future of Place-Making on One of the Most Exciting Redevelopments in the UK.

We are seeking a standout Estate Manager to take the helm of a landmark mixed-use development – a dynamic blend of residential, commercial, retail and food & beverage spaces that’s redefining modern urban living.

This is not your average management role. The successful candidate will play a pivotal role in shaping a world-class destination, driving operational excellence, placemaking, and community engagement from day one.

🌟 About the Opportunity

As Estate Manager, you will oversee the daily running of the entire estate, ensuring a seamless and exceptional experience for residents, occupiers, businesses, and visitors. You’ll lead a team of service partners and collaborate closely with the asset and development teams to embed innovation, sustainability, and community spirit throughout the estate.

This newly redeveloped scheme is designed to inspire – and we’re looking for someone who matches that energy.

🔍 Key Responsibilities

• Oversee all estate operations across residential, retail, F&B, and commercial spaces.

• Champion sustainability and ESG practices across the development.

• Deliver best-in-class customer and occupier experience through service innovation.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with tenants, residents, and stakeholders.

• Lead estate activation initiatives to foster community and engagement.

• Monitor and manage service providers to ensure the highest standards.

• Support strategic asset management and long-term planning with creative input.

💼 About You

We’re looking for someone spectacular – not just experienced, but visionary.

You will bring:

• Proven experience managing mixed-use estates or large, high-profile developments.

• A track record of leadership across diverse asset types (residential, commercial, F&B, retail).

• An innovative mindset – always looking for ways to evolve and improve.

• Strong stakeholder and relationship management skills – you’re as comfortable with residents as you are with board-level investors.

• A deep understanding of placemaking, customer experience, and ESG principles.

• A confident, solutions-led approach with the ability to take charge, influence others, and drive results.

✨ What’s On Offer?

• The chance to lead operations on a truly exceptional development.

• A creative, ambitious client that values fresh ideas and empowers its people.

• Competitive salary & benefits.

• A highly collaborative environment where your vision and voice will matter.

Be the heartbeat of something extraordinary.
If you’re ready to make your mark on a high-profile, community-led development, we want to hear from you.
