Estama is one of the UK’s fastest-growing independent asset and property management businesses, specialising in shopping centres and complex commercial property.
Our growth has been built on our people. We believe that great property management comes from talented people who are trusted to take responsibility, make decisions and have a genuine impact on the properties and communities they work with.
As an employee-owned business, everyone at Estama has a stake in our continued success. We want our people to share in what we build together and to have the opportunity to develop their careers as the business grows.
Where Trust Matters isn't just something we say to our clients. It applies to our people too.
We're deliberately different from the traditional large corporate property consultancy.
Our teams are given responsibility, encouraged to contribute ideas and trusted to make decisions. Whether you're starting your career or joining us with years of experience, you'll have the opportunity to work closely with senior colleagues, clients and occupiers and to see the direct impact of your work.
As we continue to grow, we're committed to retaining the entrepreneurial, collaborative culture that has been central to Estama from the beginning.
Estama is proud to be an employee-owned business.
That means the people working in the business have a genuine interest in its long-term success. It encourages us to think differently about how we work, how we support one another and how we deliver for our clients.
We believe employee ownership helps create a business where people feel greater responsibility for the decisions they make and greater connection to what we're building together.
Our success is shared success.
We want people to build careers at Estama, not simply have jobs with us.
We support professional development across the business through structured training, mentoring, CPD and professional qualifications.
For those beginning their careers in property, we provide opportunities to gain practical experience alongside experienced professionals and support employees working towards recognised industry qualifications, including the RICS APC.
We also support professional development across facilities management, accounting and other disciplines, recognising that there are many different routes to building a successful career within the property industry.
As Estama grows, new opportunities continue to emerge across the business. Wherever possible, we want our people to grow with us.
Commercial property is ultimately about people and places.
Our teams manage shopping centres and commercial properties across the UK that are visited by millions of people every year. They work with national and independent businesses, support local communities and help shape the future of town centres and retail destinations.
That means the work we do can have a very visible impact.
From bringing vacant space back into use and welcoming new businesses, to improving sustainability, supporting community initiatives and transforming the performance of an asset, our people can see the results of their work every day.
We want Estama to be a business where people can perform at their best while maintaining a healthy balance between their professional and personal lives.
We offer flexible working where appropriate and provide access to wellbeing support and resources through our partnership with the Retail Trust.
We also recognise the importance of creating a supportive working environment where people feel comfortable asking for help, sharing ideas and challenging the way things are done.
The property industry is stronger when it attracts people with different backgrounds, experiences and perspectives.
We're committed to creating an inclusive working environment where opportunities are based on ability and potential.
You don't need to have followed a traditional route into property to build a successful career at Estama. We welcome people from different backgrounds and career paths and are committed to helping talented people develop.
We're a growing business, but we want to retain the culture and personal approach that helped us get here.
Our people work across our offices and managed properties throughout the UK, but we're one team. We regularly bring colleagues together for company events, training, professional development, community initiatives and social activities.
We work hard and set high standards for ourselves, but we also want Estama to be somewhere people enjoy working.
Professional when it matters. Personal where it counts.
We're always interested in hearing from talented people who share our approach to property and our values.
