Role
Who you are
- We are looking for someone who has already built and led outbound sales teams and enjoys running a high-activity sales environment

What the job involves
- We are looking for a proven outbound sales leader to build and scale our Business Development function

- Your focus will be on hiring, developing and leading the team, creating a strong performance culture and ensuring consistent sales output
- This is a frontline sales leadership role focused on execution and team performance, rather than strategy or account management
- Building the team – hiring and onboarding additional salespeople as we grow the function

Salary benchmarks
Our take
GetAgent analyses thousands of property listings to create estate agent comparison rankings based on sales performance, time taken to sell, and price achieved relative to the original asking price. Homeowners looking to sell use this information to help them choose the best estate agent and maximise the sale value of their homes.
GetAgent also provides agents with leads that they only pay for if the introduction turns into a sale, with thousands of estate agents making use of the platform. Altogether, the sales of over £100 billion worth of property have been associated with the platform, through hundreds of thousands of homeowner users.
The data GetAgent uses to create performance comparisons originates from the research the company had conducted itself on the real estate industry, the results of which it makes publicly available. This transparency, and the wider work of the platform, aim to contribute to improving the competitiveness of the estate agency market in an alternative way to other market players.
