SHARMILA De la Rosa
@sharmiladelarosa
Property and maintenance coordinator delivering compliant tenancies, smooth operations, and calm resolutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven property professional with 15+ years’ experience in property management, lettings administration, and maintenance coordination. I act as the central point of contact for landlords, tenants, contractors, and internal teams, keeping everything moving with scheduling, diary management, and clear communication.
In my most recent role as a Property and Maintenance Coordinator, I facilitated maintenance and lettings operations across a portfolio of 300+ properties, coordinating end-to-end maintenance between landlords, tenants, and contractors and maintaining compliance through systems like Gas Safety Certificates and EICRs. With a strong legal-and-documentation background, I’m confident handling onboarding, renewals, inspections, CRM management, dispute resolution, and audit-ready records—so tenants stay supported and landlords stay informed.
