The Opportunity
Are you a proactive, commercially minded Lettings Negotiator who enjoys making things happen rather than waiting for opportunities to come to you?
This is an opportunity to join an established independent estate agency in Fulham and Parsons Green, working closely with the Lettings Manager to drive lettings performance, maximise existing opportunities and contribute to the continued growth of the department.
The business has built a strong reputation across South West London, with an established network of landlords, a quality portfolio of properties and a particularly attractive selection of flats and houses across the local market.
This is not a role for someone who simply manages incoming enquiries. The business is looking for someone who will actively work the applicant database, pick up the phone, generate viewings, follow up opportunities and convert available properties into completed lets.
You’ll work in tandem with the Lettings Manager, who leads on generating new instructions, giving you the opportunity to focus on maximising the stock available and driving revenue through successful lettings.
Alongside lettings, approximately 30% of your role will involve supporting the property management function, building relationships with landlords and tenants, conducting property visits and identifying opportunities to grow the management portfolio.
With a competitive guaranteed earnings package, uncapped potential through commission and a clear opportunity to progress into a senior position, this is an excellent next step for an ambitious lettings professional.
The Role
Residential Lettings (Primary Focus)
- Proactively work through the applicant database, identifying suitable applicants for available properties and generating viewing opportunities.
- Pick up the phone and actively engage with applicants rather than relying solely on incoming enquiries and emails.
- Arrange and conduct property viewings, showcasing properties and building relationships with prospective tenants.
- Manage applicants throughout the lettings process, from initial enquiry through to negotiation, offer acceptance and move-in.
- Negotiate offers, prepare agreed terms and ensure offer documentation and communication are handled accurately.
- Maintain regular contact with applicants, landlords and colleagues to keep deals moving and maximise conversion rates.
- Work closely with the Lettings Manager to maximise the potential of new instructions and existing stock.
Property Management (Additional Responsibility)
- Build and maintain positive relationships with landlords and tenants, acting as a local point of contact.
- Conduct scheduled property visits and inspections across the management portfolio.
- Coordinate key handovers and liaise with contractors where required.
- Support the wider property management team with day-to-day requirements.
- Identify opportunities to bring additional landlords and properties onto the management service.
About You
We’re looking for someone with approximately two years’ experience in residential lettings who is ready to take the next step in their career.
You’ll ideally be:
- Highly proactive and confident picking up the phone, generating viewings and working an applicant database.
- Commercially minded, with a genuine drive to secure deals and maximise earning potential.
- Confident negotiating and progressing transactions from initial enquiry through to completion.
- A natural relationship-builder who can engage confidently with applicants, landlords and tenants.
- Self‑motivated and comfortable taking ownership without needing constant direction.
- Organised, adaptable and able to manage competing priorities.
- Positive, straightforward and comfortable working in a close‑knit, entrepreneurial environment.
- Interested in developing your property management knowledge alongside your lettings experience.
Local knowledge of Fulham, Parsons Green and the surrounding South West London market would be advantageous.
A full UK driving licence is essential.
What’s On Offer?
- £60,000–£65,000 OTE, with £34,000 guaranteed earnings.
- £22,000 basic salary plus a guaranteed property management earnings element of £12,000.
- 10% commission on lettings deals completed.
- Additional earning potential through property management activity.
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
- The opportunity to work with quality residential properties across Fulham and Parsons Green.
- Direct exposure to an established landlord network and an active portfolio.
- Close working relationship with an experienced Lettings Manager and supportive property management team.
- Genuine progression opportunities, with the potential to develop into a Senior Negotiator and play a part in building the wider lettings team.
