About Us The Eildon Group has built a strong reputation and risen to a position as one of Scotland’s leading Housing Associations and a multi, award-winning developer. At the heart of our service is a deep commitment to excellence and the provision of high quality, sustainable, affordable homes. To this end we are the largest developer of new homes (of any tenure) in the Scottish Borders.

The Role This is an exciting opportunity to join Eildon, a highly regarded and ambitious organisation, in a pivotal leadership role as our next Property Manager.

The Property Manager will be pivotal in making this service shine, shaping its future and growing the team.

Managing day‑to‑day property compliance activities through specialist contractors
Managing our estates’ landscaping and cleanliness programmes
Managing our Care and Repair Team, delivering a range of OT services and property support packages.
Reporting into the role are a team of Maintenance Officers (diagnostic surveyors), the Home Improvement Team (multi‑disciplinary trades people), the brand new role of Repairs Coordinator (responsible for directly delivered repairs) and a Project Officer and Technical Officer, who deliver our Care and Repair Team.
The successful candidate will be technically proficient, from a construction or facilities background, possess strong and effective leadership to support a growing team and will be focused on delivering a great‑value and excellent quality service to our residents.
In Return
A generous annual leave entitlement of 41 days (including public holidays, four of which are fixed at the Christmas and New Year period).
Defined Contribution pension scheme with employer pension contributions starting at 6% and rising to a maximum of 10% depending on employee contributions.
Access to a death‑in‑service benefits scheme providing 3x salary.
An annual car allowance payment.
Payment of Professional Fees.
Membership of a Health Cash Plan which also includes free and confidential employee assistance and services which support physical, social, mental and financial well‑being.
We have a modern office in Selkirk to support us working collaboratively, and have the infrastructure to support flexible, hybrid working options, to enable our people to work in the most effective way to deliver the requirements of their role and balance this with their lives outside of work.
