Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
Day to day my role varies drastically, whether being in the office, on site or working from home. I work on the development of commercial properties and projects on both the consultancy and agency side. This can include writing reports, undertaking viability appraisals, responding to enquiries and holding viewings/inspections.
