Acquisitions Manager (or Senior Acquisitions Manager)

Description

You’ll work closely with the company’s leadership team to shape acquisition strategy and drive the next phase of growth.

• Support diversification into new sectors or deal types
• Identify, appraise, and acquire land and buildings with development potential across the South East
• Operate under the trading licence model, focusing on planning gain rather than delivery
• Lead due diligence, planning assessments, and financial appraisals
• Build relationships with agents, landowners, developers, and local authorities

Requirements

Rather than a standard residential land-buying position, this is a chance to diversify and add value: you might have experience in strategic land, commercial or mixed-use assets, alternative residential (such as PBSA, BTR or co-living) or planning-led deals where gain is driven by consent, not construction.

• Commercially astute and confident in assessing risk and opportunity
• Entrepreneurial mindset and ability to work autonomously
• You bring a niche—perhaps in strategic land, commercial repurposing, alternative living, or mixed-use regeneration—and the contacts to back it up
• Proven track record in land acquisition, planning, or development across the South East
• Strong network of agents, landowners, and introducers
• Hands-on understanding of the planning system (Local Plans, NPPF, etc.)

Benefits

Join a company that can move fast, where your ideas will be heard, and your deals will actually happen. You’ll be part of a close-knit, loyal team with real momentum—led by a dynamic, design-minded founder who’s built an enviable portfolio by spotting potential others miss.
