Commercial Property Manager / Assistant – Inner North
Spire Recruitment is partnering with a respected commercial agency to appoint either an experienced Commercial Property Manager or an Assistant Commercial Property Manager to join their high-performing team in Melbourne’s inner north.
This is an excellent opportunity for a proven commercial PM, or a strong residential PM ready to step into commercial, to build a long-term career in a structured, well-supported environment.
The role:
You’ll work within an established commercial department, supporting the overall management of a quality portfolio of commercial assets and delivering a high level of service to owners and tenants. Depending on experience, the role can be tailored as a full Commercial Property Manager position or as an Assistant stepping up with clear training and mentoring.
Key responsibilities (aligned to experience level) include:
- Supporting the management and maintenance of a portfolio of commercial properties, ensuring high-quality service to owners and tenants.
- Assisting with, or independently coordinating, ingoing and outgoing inspections, condition reports and photo reports in line with legislative requirements.
- Handling maintenance requests, obtaining quotes, liaising with approved trades and ensuring works are completed and invoiced correctly.
- Assisting with rental arrears, security deposits and landlord statements, with progression to owning these processes as capability grows.
- Conducting routine inspections, rent reviews and lease renewals (or supporting a senior PM with these tasks) and providing clear, timely updates to owners.
- Preparing documentation for rental increases, lease transfers and notices in line with the Retail Leases Act and relevant legislation.
- Maintaining accurate notes and records within the property management software, and responding promptly to email and phone enquiries.
You’ll be part of a collaborative, professional team with strong systems, regular meetings and open communication, and will be supported to build confidence in the commercial space.
About you:You may already be an experienced Commercial Property Manager, or you might be a capable residential PM or assistant PM looking to move into commercial and broaden your career. What matters most is your attitude, organisation and commitment to quality service.
To be successful, you will have: - Real Estate Licence or Agents Representative Certificate (essential).
- Experience in residential or commercial property management, or a strong property management support background with excellent admin skills.
- Strong administration and organisational skills, high attention to detail and confidence working with established systems and processes.
- Clear, professional communication skills – written and verbal – with the ability to build rapport with owners, tenants and colleagues.
- A proactive, solutions-focused approach, and willingness to learn, take initiative and continuously improve processes.
- Current Victorian driver’s licence, reliable vehicle and polished personal presentation.
Experience with Re-Leased, Inspection Express and Inspect Real Estate will be highly regarded, as will any exposure to the Retail Leases Act and commercial leasing.
Culture and benefits:You’ll join a stable, well-regarded commercial team known for professionalism, integrity and strong client relationships, with genuine support for ongoing training and development. You’ll be encouraged to grow, with clear pathways from assistant-level responsibilities through to owning a portfolio as your experience and confidence develops.
Salary and package will be commensurate with experience, with a clear structure for progression as you take on more responsibility.
