Recruiting Now: Property Investment Strategist – Melbourne

We’re looking for a Property Investment Strategist to work in our Melbourne office

 

This is a very rare opportunity for an ethical sales consultant to join Australia’s largest residential property investment advisory firm.

2015-16 was a record year for us and 2016-17 will be even better. We just can’t handle all the enquires we’re receiving for our services from beginning, established and very substantial property investors and we need a proven professional to ethically guide them.

This is a secure, long-term, office based position with serious management prospects.

There’s no cold calling – in fact all enquiries are fully qualified before you would see them in our offices in Brighton and they come from referrals, professional alliances and our national marketing campaigns.

We know the type of person that we are looking for and will recognise them quickly when they apply.

• You may currently be working in real estate, finance, financial planning or banking.
• You’ll understand the principles of property investment and be able to deal with investors at all levels.
• You will be professional, polished and above all ethical.
• You will have outstanding verbal communication skills and a successful sales background, and of course you absolutely hate cold calling. (Who doesn’t)
• You want to work where your passion for wealth creation will be supported and encouraged, not hindered.
• You set high standards for yourself, be driven, expect a very high income and be prepared to work for it and you’ll want to advance in our company eventually sitting “around the big table” with the other directors.
