Company: St Modwen
Role: Property Manager
Currently a Property Manager for St Modwen, Isabelle manages health and safety and risk mitigation, attends site meetings, and manages complaints. She looks after 130 units and 22 properties in total.
Isabelle was approached by a former manager about her role, who encouraged her to apply. She felt attracted to the opportunity it presented because of St Modwen’s good reputation in the market, and with her husband currently serving in the military, the work life balance, friendly feel and flexibility of the role really appealed to her.
Having trained for a Masters in Estate Management, and as an active member of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors, Isabelle knew she had the relevant qualifications, but she also had some previous experience in warehouses.
“I felt the logistics industry would give me a stable career with some good growth and development opportunities in the future.”
She enjoys the variety her role brings and the fact that every day presents a new challenge. She feels that working in logistics keeps her on her toes, and ensures she’s learning new skills. For example, Isabelle was given the opportunity to undertake a RICS qualification whilst on the job, and was absolutely delighted when she passed, first time.
