Work

Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.

What you'll do at work

Accord Sales & Lettings is a family-run estate agency based in Havering. We’ve built our reputation on honest advice, strong communication, and genuinely looking after our clients.

We’re not a corporate. We’re a small, experienced team that cares about doing things properly.

This role isn’t about making tea and photocopying. You’ll be learning how to run and manage real properties, deal with real people, and build skills that can lead to a serious career in the industry.

 

What you’ll be doing

You’ll be trained to support the day-to-day running of our lettings and property management department, including:

Assisting with marketing properties
Handling enquiries, booking and carrying out viewings
Speaking with tenants and landlords, helping resolve issues and queries
Supporting the move-in process, references, and tenancy setup
Helping manage property maintenance and liaising with contractors
Keeping records up to date on our systems
Assisting with inspections and general property management tasks
Booking and organising works such as cleaning, inventories, and repairs
Supporting new business generation, including occasional leaflet drops
Providing a high level of customer service at all times
Over time, you’ll build the confidence and ability to handle these tasks independently.
