Revealed: The property jobs commanding some of the highest salaries right now
With salaries across the UK jumping up by 4.1% last month, the latest data from CV-Library, the UK’s leading independent job board, reveals that the property industry is offering some of the highest pay packets right now*.
In fact, after analysing over 175,000 jobs posted on its site in April 2019, the job board reveals that average pay in property currently sits at £34,621 per annum, with certain roles commanding even higher salaries:
- Building Manager - £52,430.00
- Chartered Surveyor - £48,476.56
- Town Planner - £48,325.19

- Property Manager - £36,914.41
- Senior Estate Agent - £35,900
- Lettings Manager - £33,681.82
- Accommodation Manager - £33,197.00
Lee Biggins, founder and CEO of CV-Library comments: “As key skills across the property sector become more in demand, it’s clear that organisations are pushing up pay in a bid to entice people out of their current roles and this a trend we’re noticing across the board.”
What’s more, the job board found that pay in the industry had jumped up by 5.5% year-on-year, suggesting that employers are pulling out all the stops to try and overcome ongoing skills shortages.
Biggins continues: “The property sector is heavily reliant on talented individuals to help drive organisations forward, particularly when there is so much uncertainty around Brexit. We know that there is a strong demand for workers within this industry, putting the power in the employees’ hands to search and apply for new roles, with higher pay.”
