About United St Saviour's Charity
United St Saviour’s Charity (UStSC) has a 500 year history in Southwark but a very progressive outlook and big ambitions for the future. We have a £50m+ and growing asset base, with a portfolio of historic and iconic commercial properties around London Bridge which generate approximately £1.5 annual income, and several low-cost housing schemes for older people in the form of almshouses.
The charity is going through a period of change and growth. After years in the planning, in early 2022 we will open a purpose-built and modern almshouse called Appleby Blue, comprising 59 beautifully designed homes and an all-ages community facility for Bermondsey. Our property portfolio has also recently expanded with the purchase of our historic and now refurbished HQ next to London Bridge station
We are creating the new post of Property Manager to oversee the management of all the charity’s properties, to help us take on these exciting new and complex buildings, ensuring that they are looked after to the highest possible standard and that the charity is compliant with legal and Health and Safety requirements.
This is an exciting and responsible role that is hugely varied. You will be working for a small charity as part of a small team.
