A fantastic opportunity for an ambitious Estate/Asset Manager to join the in-house property team of a successful, multi-generational family-owned business based in Bakewell, Derbyshire, in the heart of the Peak District.

The Group has a diverse property portfolio, currently predominantly commercial, as well as residential and rural property, holiday cottages, fishing, development opportunities, renewable energy and a range of other assets. Alongside managing and enhancing the existing portfolio, there is a clear strategic ambition to expand the Group's rural and agricultural interests.

It will suit an ambitious rural surveyor who is interested in the wider commercial drivers of property and keen to take on significant responsibility across a diverse and growing portfolio.
