Job summary:

Do you want to work for the Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) and care for the Defence Estate? DIO enables Defence to live, work, train and deploy, all with sustainability in mind.

From net carbon zero accommodations to runways for the F35 fighter jets; our outputs are unique in the UK and across the globe

Job description:

The Role

The surveyor will be one of several valuers responsible for undertaking rent reviews on a residential portfolio which consists of c.490 leases and a total rent of c.£190M p.a.

The lease clauses follow commercial rather than residential format e.g., the review clauses include assumptions and disregards.

The rents are based on sample units for each estate and the reviews are staggered so that roughly a quarter of the stock is negotiated each year.

DIO Business Area
Estates

The Defence estate is one of the largest landholdings in the UK and covers an estimated 1.8% of the UK land mass (200,000+ ha).

This is complemented by a significant UK Defence presence overseas.

If you are a suitably qualified property professional who would be interested in working client-side with Military colleagues on one of the largest estates in the country and/or across an extensive overseas portfolio, and you are motivated by the prospect of working on a diverse range of exciting, interesting and often-challenging projects of National interest in support of the UK Defence Mission, then the DIO Estates Team is for you

Estates are the in-house real estate team within the DIO (part of the UK Ministry of Defence) supporting infrastructure needs across a high-profile Public Estate.

We acquire, manage, safeguard, and dispose of Defence real estate.

Our unique customer knowledge and insight of the Defence Estate enables our in-house team of property professionals to provide in-depth advice to our Military customers.
