About Haringey
Haringey is a fantastic place to live and work – the world in one borough. A place brimming with creativity, personality, radicalism, and community. It is a place where we stand up for each other. A place that is proudly distinctive. We’ll be celebrating all this and more as the “rebel borough” when we are the 2027 London Borough of Culture.
Our history champions change-makers and everyday rebels; revelling in our differences, battling discrimination, championing equality, and doing things our own way. Haringey’s people are a huge asset, with knowledge, expertise, and passion. Our staff members embody our organisational values: Caring, Creative, Courageous, Collaborative and Community-focused. These values keep us looking forward, ambitious for the future, and continuously striving to do our very best for all of our residents.

This includes calculating completion figures for new lettings and revised billing amounts following rent reviews, lease renewals, assignments, and terminations.
As an integral part of the team, you will proactively manage email inboxes and correspondence, prioritising and redirecting items as needed. You will also handle diary management for the team, effectively coordinating and scheduling meetings, events, and conference calls. This includes room bookings, attendee management, and detailed follow-up as necessary.

About you
We are seeking a proactive individual with strong experience within a commercial property or estate agency department, private practice, or another client-side organisation. You will liaise with different areas and collaborate with accounting and finance departments to maintain accurate records and produce regular periodic and ad-hoc reports as required.
