    Job description

    Vision: To be the UK's leading digital infrastructure partner, enabling a fully connected future.

    Mission: Deliver reliable, high-quality site access, infrastructure and services that support our customers' evolving connectivity needs.

    About Us

    For almost two decades, Cornerstone's infrastructure has quietly supported the UK's mobile networks. Whilst we continue to strengthen that foundation and extend its reach, we're in an exciting period of acceleration and product development that will see us enable more connectivity and compute to more communities and industries across the UK.

    We're looking for a Lead Portfolio Asset Manager to lead our portfolio management team and take ownership of some of Cornerstone's most strategically important estate relationships.

    Why This Role Matters

    Our ability to deliver and grow depends on strong portfolio partnerships and commercially effective agreements. This role sits at the heart of that challenge.

    • 📊 Deliver reporting, forecasts and recommendations to SLT and governance forums.
    • 🏗️ Oversee renewals, acquisitions, upgrades, disposals and key property transactions.
    • ⚙️ Improve governance, reporting and operational processes.
    • 🛡️ Manage risks, issues and compliance across priority portfolios.

    What You'll Bring

    • Proven leadership experience managing and developing high-performing teams.
    • Strong commercial negotiation and stakeholder management skills.
    • Experience managing complex property, portfolio or asset management activities.
    • Demonstrable success identifying and delivering commercial growth opportunities.
    • Strong financial and commercial acumen, including P&L awareness.
    • Excellent communication and influencing skills, including experience presenting to senior stakeholders.
    • Experience managing third-party suppliers and working within complex environments.
