We're looking for a dynamic Lettings Negotiator to join our growing team here at Keating Estates. Outstanding customer service and communication skills are a must, as well as the ability to build strong relationships with clients and meet targets.
We're an independent estate agency, established in South London for over twenty years. Our strong market presence and large property portfolio means there are plenty of deals to be done, so you can be sure you'll reach your potential. In return for your hard work, we offer a competitive salary, commission and bonus structure and a company car. You'll also benefit from our ongoing training opportunities.
We're a friendly, sociable bunch and really value teamwork, helping each other out with viewings, paperwork, tying deals etc. We don’t have one of those cut-throat/beat your colleague to the deal/whatever it takes atmospheres here! The competition between our negotiators is strong and healthy, but fair and transparent.
Another plus - you won't need to deal with move-ins. We have a dedicated move-in administration team to cover that, allowing you to focus on your role as a negotiator.
