The Opportunity

This is a leadership role for a sales heavyweight β€” someone with a proven track record of winning instructions and selling homes across Sevenoaks and the wider Kent market.

Leading the Team

  • Setting clear objectives aligned to business strategy, and holding the team to them
  • Running regular 1-2-1s, team meetings, and appraisals that actually move the needle
  • Coaching and developing talent β€” building a bench, not just hitting this month's numbers

Driving the Business

  • Owning new business generation β€” pitching, winning, and closing
  • Personally running deals from pitch through to completion
  • Building a best-in-class sales operation through direct marketing, campaigns, and a sharp contact network
  • Conducting viewings, valuing property, and negotiating the best possible outcomes for clients
  • Overseeing marketing, PR, and brand presence for every listing
  • Staying ahead of local market trends and using data to sharpen strategy
  • Cross-selling across departments and managing client relationships beyond the sale

What You'll Bring

  • A track record of winning business and smashing targets
  • Proven pitch-winning success and the ability to close
  • Real people-leadership experience β€” recruiting, developing, and managing performance
  • Data fluency β€” comfortable turning numbers into strategy
  • Natural rapport-building and the gravitas to influence at every level
  • An entrepreneurial eye for opportunity and a genuine passion for the local market
