Own the city. Grow the business. Deliver the experience.

Why this role exists

/n

Student Living is not just about operating residences.

/n

Each city is a business that needs to consistently acquire students, maintain solid occupancy, deliver a reliable living experience, control costs, and build relationships that enable long-term growth.

/n

As the business scales, success in each city depends on having one leader who sees the complete picture and takes accountability for the overall outcome.

/n

The City Head exists to own the city as a business.

/n

This means bringing together:

/n

/n
Revenue and occupancy
/n
Student acquisition and sales
/n
Property operations
/n
Customer experience
/n
Cost and profitability
/n
Team performance
/n
Institutional and local relationships
/n
New property ramp-up and city growth
/n

/n

If this role is strong, the city grows profitably, properties remain occupied,



students have a strong experience, teams execute consistently, and new opportunities are identified early.

/n

If this role is weak, functions operate in silos, occupancy suffers, costs increase, customer issues escalate, and growth becomes difficult to sustain.

/n

/n

Your mandate is clear

/n

/n
Own the complete P&L; for the city
/n
Deliver revenue, occupancy, and profitability targets
/n
Drive student acquisition and business growth
/n
Ensure properties operate consistently and efficiently
/n
Own the end-to-end student experience
/n
Build and lead strong city teams
/n
Develop institutional and local partnerships
/n
Identify and execute recent growth prospects
/n
Build a city business that can scale sustainably
/n

/n

This is not a functional role.

/n

It is end-to-end ownership of the city business.
