Hybrid | Regular UK Travel

We’re partnering with a high-growth, PE-backed property services business that’s scaling rapidly as part of a global platform managing millions of properties worldwide.

This isn’t a corporate sales role. It’s a build, shape, and scale opportunity! Think: startup mentality, backed by enterprise infrastructure.

They’re now hiring a Director of Sales to own and build their organic growth engine from the ground up.

The Role

The brief is very specific: they need someone to build pipeline from scratch and win multi-stakeholder deals—not inherit relationships.

Who you’d be selling to:

• Property developers (new build schemes)
• Landlords / asset owners
• Resident / estate management groups

What they’re looking for:

• Proven experience winning new logos (not managing accounts)
• Background in complex, long sales cycles (6–24 months)
• Strong track record selling multi-site / contract-based services
• Comfortable navigating tenders, procurement and senior stakeholders
• Experience in sectors like Facilities Management, Real Estate, Property Services or similar B2B environments

It’s a hands-on role - owning the full sales lifecycle from lead generation through to close, with real autonomy and visibility.

You’ll work alongside a highly experienced internal team, bringing a more proactive, hunter-led approach to growth.

Expect pace, ambiguity, and autonomy - this is a role for someone who enjoys figuring things out and making things happen.

Why This Is Different

• Backed by a global PE platform with serious scale
• Access to market-leading technology, data, and service capability
• Ability to sell a genuinely differentiated proposition in a traditional market
• Opportunity to build the function, not just operate within it

What You’ll Be Doing

• Defining and executing the organic sales strategy
• Building a consistent pipeline of new business opportunities
• Targeting developers, asset owners, and management companies
• Navigating long-cycle, complex deals (2 months → 2+ years)
• Owning commercial conversations and closing high-value contracts
• Leveraging tech, data, and group capabilities to outperform competitors

Backgrounds Considered

Industry matters less than how you sell - but you should have a genuine interest in the property landscape.

Strong profiles may come from:

• Property / block management / real estate
• Facilities management (multi-site, contract-led sales)
• Developer / BTR / asset-led environments
• PropTech / enterprise SaaS (must be complex, not transactional)
• Other contract-based B2B services with long sales cycles

Key Traits

• High ownership, low ego
• Commercially sharp, but not overly “salesy”
• Comfortable with ambiguity and making decisions
• Credible with experienced, traditional stakeholders
• Naturally proactive - you don’t wait for leads
• Exceptional at newtroking

Why Join

• Direct impact on growth and profitability
• Backed by a £60M+ EBITDA global platform
• Opportunity to build and shape the sales function
• High visibility with senior leadership (CEO / Group CCO)
• A role where output and impact matter more than process

In Short

This is for someone who wants to build, not maintain - and who thrives in that space between startup hustle and enterprise scale.
