A typical week at LPS Real Estate is busy and varied, providing a practical look at the full lettings and management cycle. While the role is primarily based in our Tithebarn Street office, you will be central to our daily operations, ensuring that both our tenants and landlords receive a professional and seamless service.
You will play a crucial role in the lettings process, from the very first step of listing a property to the final move-in. This starts with preparing and uploading property details to our own website and major property portals, ensuring the descriptions are accurate and the listings go live to attract interest. From there, you will help handle the initial enquiries and answer the phones to assist people looking for their next home.
Once a tenant is found, you will be responsible for the start-to-finish process of a move-in, which entails conducting tenant referencing, requesting credit checks and ensuring all necessary paperwork is completed. Looking after our landlords and their properties is a key part of this role. You will learn the essential and always evolving legal compliance that keeps a modern agency running, from ensuring gas and electrical safety certificates are up to date to drafting the tenancy agreements themselves and ensuring they are correctly signed and stored.
A significant part of your work involves overseeing property management and processing maintenance issues. This involves assessing a request, communicating clearly with the landlord for approval, and then coordinating with our trusted contractors to get the job done. In this industry, you often act as the bridge between a tenant needing help and a landlord looking for a solution, which requires you to be a good listener and a clear communicator.
We are currently onboarding a brand-new cloud-based CRM system, so it is a great time to join us and learn the software alongside the rest of the team.Training Outcome:Our goal at LPS is always to invest in our people for the long term. We don't view an apprenticeship as a temporary role; we see it as a pathway to becoming a permanent, essential member of our team. Upon successful completion of your apprenticeship, we hope to offer you a permanent position within the company as a Property Manager / Lettings & Sales Negotiator and would be happy to continue with additional training once the initial apprenticeship course was completed.
Whatever route you decide to take, you will leave your apprenticeship with a skillset that is highly sought-after and you will have a solid professional foundation from a company with over 21 years of industry experience.Employer Description:LPS Real Estate is an independent agency specialising in the Liverpool property market. While we offer a full range of residential services, our business is primarily built on property management and lettings, which makes up about 85% of our daily operations. The remaining 15% of our work is dedicated to residential sales, allowing us to provide a comprehensive service to clients looking to buy, sell or invest in the city.
Our portfolio is as diverse as Liverpool itself. We manage everything from modern city-centre apartments and large residential blocks to traditional family homes in the surrounding Merseyside suburbs.
A key part of our identity is our commitment to using modern tools. We are a tech-forward, cloud-based agency, utilising industry-leading systems to manage rent rolls, maintenance tracking and legal compliance with precision. For us, integrating this technology is about efficiency; it allows our team to move away from manual, paper-based administration and focus on delivering a high-quality, personal service to our tenants and landlords.
At the heart of LPS is a small, tight-knit team that operates with a collaborative mindset. We take pride in our "boutique" approach, which allows us to offer a level of tailored service that larger corporate firms often struggle to match. Our office environment is fast-paced, and every team member is involved in the day-to-day success of the business. We don't just list properties; we manage them with a detail-oriented focus to ensure every home in our care meets the highest safety and legal standards.
We are based in the heart of Liverpool’s Business District on Tithebarn Street. This central location places us at the core of the city’s professional life, just a short walk from major transport links.
This year marks our 21st year in business. Over the last two decades, we have evolved from a local start-up into a respected, "no-nonsense" firm with a deep understanding of the Liverpool landscape. We have navigated various market shifts by remaining transparent and adaptable, which has helped us build a loyal base of landlords and investors who have stayed with us for years.
After 21 years of growth, our mission remains the same: to provide honest, expert property services backed by the most efficient technology on the market.
