Job description

• Salary: Competitive, plus commission - £45-50k OTE, car allowance & excellent benefits
• Hours: Tuesday to Saturday, 09:30 am to 17:00 pm, 37.5 hours per week
• Location: Coronation Lodge, West Kirby, CH48 4EQ

Coronation Lodge is a stunning new collection of retirement apartments, built specifically for people over 60 to enjoy. Surrounded by a marina, galleries and museums, the development is in an ideal location to support an independent and active retirement.

We are now recruiting for a talented Sales Executive to work full time at the development.

About the role

As a Sales Executive you’ll be the person that makes a true difference to the lives of our customers as you introduce them to the world of independent retirement living. You’ll proactively contact customers who have shown an interest in knowing more about our developments and provide the best advice on their purchase of the apartment and the lifestyle they can enjoy.

Key responsibilities

• Building strong relationships with customers to ensure that they have a hassle free and positive experience from enquiry to move in day.
• Based on site from the Welcome Centre, you will have sole responsibility for the achievement of sales targets and budgeted selling prices for your development, gaining an understanding of the site, which will be the next place customers call home.
• You’ll have the opportunity to show customers apartments. You’ll have a show home centre that has everything at your fingertips – from floor plans and apartment designs to interior offerings and removal companies.

Reporting to the Area Sales Manager, the Sales Executive will work as part of a wider sales team and liaise closely with Marketing, Customer Relations and Construction teams as well as liaising with offsite agents, sales partners, solicitors and progress sales through to completion.

About you

Most importantly, you will be used to an environment where "selling through excellent customer service" is key and we’d love it if you had previous sales experience within the retirement market or selling property.

To be a successful Sales Executive, you will demonstrate excellent customer relationship skills and a determination to succeed. You’ll need to be happy working independently, and have a proactive approach to sales and marketing.

We all understand that moving can be a daunting experience – your calming and supportive approach will ensure our Customers are at ease when making important decisions. You will demonstrate professional and responsible selling at all times, being prepared to get involved at every opportunity to ensure the customer feels valued and listened to. You'll possess excellent interpersonal skills, be organised and methodical with sound administration skills and have previous experience of using IT databases.

You must also hold a valid UK Drivers Licence, in the event you are required to visit customers away from the site or for networking purposes.

How you'll be rewarded

• Competitive salary plus commission
• Cash for Car benefit
• Annual holiday entitlement - 24 days pro rata + Bank Holidays
• Day off on your birthday
• Group Personal Pension Plan
• Health Screening
• Life Assurance
• Colleague, Client and Land referral and reward schemes
• Eye Care Reimbursement
• £200 John Lewis vouchers for expectant parents
• Colleague wellbeing programmes and company ambassadors
• Charity fund matching through Churchill Foundation
