At MAPP, we want to make the real estate industry a career path where everyone feels both welcome and wanted. We’re proud of our progress so far, but we’re constantly reevaluating how we can make sure the best people, regardless of gender, ethnicity, sexuality, nationality, background or neurodiversity, can see themselves excelling at MAPP.
Our MAPP values underpin everything we do. We were the first national real estate consultancy in the UK to become a B Corp. We want you to learn and grow, to challenge yourself and be the best you can be. As an organisation, we are growing, and have done so for the last five years. We promote about 10% of our office-based roles in a year. We have fun together with events and opportunities to connect, grow and learn with charity days and fundraising events for our communities, as well as study days that broaden our professional horizons.
This role gives you the opportunity to be a part of our effort to do something a little bit special in property management, and we would love for you to apply. We are always on the lookout for great character – that is what makes us MAPP people. If that is you, we would love to meet you!

We are MAPP
… we are an adventurous, curious and outward-looking team of around 650+ people who are on a mission to do something a little bit special together.
Since the day we got going in 1998 we knew things needed shaking up in the world of property management. So we got stuck in with a heavy emphasis on being curious and finding out exactly what our clients really needed and then focused everything on delivering a tailored service that was best in sector.
Unlike most of our competitors, we kept our focus narrow and decided that this is all we would do. You see generalists are good but specialists are better. It seemed to work and we now manage over £30bn worth of commercial property up and down the land, looking after 9,500+ units on behalf of our clients which include Funds, REITS, Trusts and Investment Managers backed by Private Equity.
