Estates Manager

At Morrisons, we’re more than just a supermarket. We’re food makers and shopkeepers, and our estate is the backbone of everything we do. From bustling stores to logistics hubs, our property portfolio is vast and dynamic.

We are looking for a commercially driven Property Manager - Estates to join our team. Reporting to the Head of Estates, you will take regional accountability for the commercial and legal health of our core estate. To be clear, this is a professional property management role focused on the landlord and tenant relationship, rather than a facilities or maintenance-led position.

• Execute agreed asset plans to maximise returns and ensure the long term health of our core estate.
  

• Proactively manage property events (rent reviews, lease renewals, and terminations) to drive cost savings and value.
  

• Identify and deliver estate initiatives that go beyond the day to day - think sub-lets, concessions, and innovative space usage.
  

• Manage and mentor a direct report, fostering a culture of high performance, coaching, and professional development.
  

Act as a key partner for regional operations, ensuring property services are delivered seamlessly.
