Business Administration Apprenticeship

Along with general administrative duties, the role will involve a mix of office-based analysis, coordination, and on-site experience. You will support the team in delivering their property management objectives across a portfolio of commercial and residential assets. This will include liaising with managing agents to resolve day-to-day issues, coordinating maintenance requirements, and obtaining and reviewing quotes from contractors. A key part of the role will be analysing expenditure across the portfolio – identifying trends, inefficiencies, and opportunities to improve performance. You will be encouraged to think commercially about how assets are managed and where value can be added. Regular site visits will form part of the role, helping you build a detailed, practical understanding of buildings, maintenance challenges, and future development potential. There will also be exposure to wider business activities, including business development initiatives. This may include supporting the growth of Malins Private Client, with opportunities such as helping to establish and manage a dedicated Instagram presence.
