Launch your property career with a team that backs you from day one
Property moves fast. Deals are won through confidence, personality and knowing your patch. If that sounds like your kind of environment, read on — because Satchells Estate Agents is looking for its next great hire.
We're a family-run business with over 100 years of history behind us and six busy offices across Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire. We're not a corporate machine. We're a tight-knit team that shares knowledge, celebrates wins together and genuinely invests in the people who join us.
This is a junior role — but it's a proper one. You'll be out meeting buyers and sellers, negotiating offers, and learning every part of the sales process from people who've been doing this for years. On-the-job training, third-party learning, and a team around you who want to see you succeed.
What you'll actually be doing
You won't be stuck behind a desk. A typical week could have you conducting viewings across multiple locations, managing a pipeline of buyers, chasing a sale through to completion, and picking up new business along the way. It's varied, it moves quickly, and no two days are the same.
- Arranging and conducting property viewings
- Generating and negotiating offers on behalf of clients
- Managing buyer applicants and building relationships
- Progressing sales through to exchange and completion
- Winning new business and promoting the full range of Satchells services
- Marketing properties across our network of six offices
Who we're looking for
You don't need years of estate agency experience. What you do need is the right attitude — someone who can hold a conversation, read a room, and push for the close without being pushy. A full UK driving licence is essential.
Beyond that, we want to see:
- A genuine flair for selling and bringing people round to your way of thinking
- Confidence communicating with all kinds of people
- A proactive mindset — spotting the opportunity before being told to
- Strong listening skills and attention to detail
- Good IT literacy and the ability to stay organised under pressure
- A team-first approach, with the drive to deliver individually
What's in it for you
We're offering a real career path, not just a job. The package reflects that:
- Competitive basic salary
- Uncapped team-based commission
- Individual referral incentives
- Bonus scheme
- 20 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, rising by one day per year of service (up to five additional days)
- One Saturday in three (9am–5pm), with the rest of your week Monday to Friday, 9am–6pm
- Minimum of one bank holiday worked per year, with a day off in lieu
- Ongoing professional training and clear routes for progression
- Access to list and sell properties across all six offices in our network
- Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), mental health first aiders and personal wellbeing support
Subject to experience, performance and national living wage qualification, on-target earnings of between £24,000 and £30,000+ per annum.
