Job description

Client Growth Manager

Remote / field-based - Scotland / Northeast England (Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Newcastle, Durham, York, Hull)

Salary: 40,000 commission + car allowance. OTE 50,000.

Are you a commercially driven relationship‑builder who thrives on turning client engagement into measurable revenue? Join UniHomes and help our letting agent partners unlock the full value of our student property platform.

We’re looking for a commercially minded Client Growth Manager to join our Business Development team at UniHomes. Our model offers letting agents free advertising of student HMOs via our property portal in return for completed shared utility order forms from the student groups we introduce. These forms generate revenue for UniHomes and commission for the agent, making this a mutually beneficial partnership. Your role is to ensure agents recognise the commercial value of our advertising and have the right systems, processes, and team engagement in place to make utility form completion a seamless and consistent part of their lettings workflow.

This is a B2B2C role where your success depends not only on strong relationships with letting agents but also on how effectively those agents engage with student tenants to complete the utility ordering process.

You’ll be the primary contact for our letting agent partners across Scotland and Northeast England, with most activity concentrated in Edinburgh and Glasgow. While the patch includes parts of Northeast England, the role is weighted towards Scotland so being based there is important to reduce travel time and maintain regular face‑to‑face engagement with our most active clients. This is a remote role with regular field visits (up to three days per week with occasional overnight stays) so candidates must be comfortable with frequent driving and hold a valid UK driving licence.

Key responsibilities

• Build and maintain strong relationships with key letting agent partners acting as their trusted advisor and main point of contact.
• Ensure agents fully understand the commercial value of our free advertising and the importance of returning completed utility order forms as part of their lettings process.
• Drive revenue growth by embedding operational best practices within client teams, ensuring staff are trained and processes are aligned to maximise form returns.
• Monitor client performance data, identify trends, and proactively address gaps to improve conversion rates and overall account success.
• Understand and influence the full B2B2C journey, ensuring agents are equipped to guide student tenants through the utility ordering process as part of their lettings workflow.
• Deliver regular performance reports and insights to clients, helping them understand their impact and opportunities for growth.
• Collaborate with business development and support teams to onboard new clients effectively and ensure long‑term success from day one.
• Support marketing and technology initiatives, maintaining accurate CRM records and ensuring all account data is up to date.

What success looks like

You’ll know you’re succeeding when agents consistently return utility order forms, their teams are fully bought into the UniHomes process, and your accounts are contributing to sustained revenue growth and long‑term partnerships.

Key performance indicators (KPIs)

• Form conversion rate: percentage of advertising leads resulting in completed utility order forms.
• Revenue contribution: total commissionable revenue generated through client accounts.
• Client engagement: frequency and quality of client interactions, including best practice sessions and process reviews.
• CRM accuracy: maintenance of complete and up‑to‑date client records and performance data.
• Portfolio growth and utilisation: proportion of a client’s student property portfolio actively advertised and let via UniHomes and progress towards full adoption across their listings.

Skills and experience

• Background in account management or similar client‑facing roles (e.g., Partner Success Manager, Growth Enablement Manager, Client Performance Lead) with a focus on driving performance and commercial outcomes rather than relationship maintenance alone.
• Experience enabling revenue growth through process alignment and behavioural change within client organisations.
• Proven ability to influence reselling behaviours and embed operational practices in B2B2C environments, ideally in property lettings, PropTech, or student accommodation.
• Strong commercial acumen with a track record of driving revenue growth through client engagement and process improvement.
• Excellent communication and influencing skills with the ability to lead client conversations and embed behavioural change.
• Confident in handling challenging discussions and aligning stakeholders around shared goals.
• Highly organised and data‑driven with the ability to analyse performance metrics and take action.
• Collaborative team player who shares best practices and contributes to collective success.
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced field‑based role with regular travel.
• Must be based in Scotland, ideally Edinburgh or Glasgow, with a suitable home working setup.
• Comfortable with frequent driving and holds a full valid UK driving licence.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office; experience with Salesforce CRM is a plus (training provided).
