Investing in homegrown talent gives our customers a better experience

At Block Management UK Ltd, we know the importance of employing a hard-working team of experts to manage a property.

Finding the right people for the job can be challenging – but we have found investing in homegrown talent the key to building an effective team.

Here, Block Management UK Ltd Managing Director David Collinson, looks at how training up staff and investing in their futures can help strengthen a business.

Homegrown stars

Block Management UK Ltd prides itself on encouraging young talent, giving them the tools, training and experience to excel at their work.

This can be evidenced in a number of our staff who have been promoted through the company into senior positions.

A great example of this is senior property manager Joshua Edgar , who started with BMUK 12 years ago as an 18-year-old.

Starting as a business development assistant, Joshua has since completed his Associate Institute of Property Management qualification and is now a fully-fledged member of the IRPM.

He is a dedicated and hard-working property manager who now shares his experience with younger members of the team.

Another example is Tom Mortimer, who is now our Compliance and Planning Manager.

Tom started at the company in 2018 aged 20, rising through the ranks from client support team to Assistant Property Manager before taking on his new role as part of our senior leadership team.

Joshua and Tom are just two examples from many across the company that show the huge benefits investing in young people can bring to a business.

The benefits of encouraging young talent

Investing in young talent and encouraging members of staff to progress with their careers is one of the keys to any business' success.

We know that an enthusiastic starter, given the right training and guidance, has the potential to become a star.

This is not based on a hunch, our amazing staff demonstrate every day the benefit of investing in your team.

Block Management UK Ltd are always on the lookout for our next Joshua or Tom – if you are interested in property management and would like to join our team, see here.
