Sales Manager – Retirement Living
Bellarine Peninsula | Geelong Region
Sell more than homes. Sell the next great chapter
This one is about people.
We are searching for a results-driven Sales Manager to join one of the Bellarine Peninsula's most outstanding retirement communities and help people make one of the biggest, and often best, decisions of their lives.
This is an opportunity for an experienced residential real estate, retirement living or lifestyle property sales professional who knows how to sell, but also understands that the best salespeople don't just close deals.
They build trust.
The Opportunity
Based at the village, you will manage the complete sales journey, from the first enquiry and community tour through to reservation, settlement and welcoming a new resident into the their new home.
You will be based at, and represent, a substantial established and thriving retirement community near Geelong, set across beautifully maintained grounds and offering the facilities, lifestyle and sense of community today's retirees are looking for.
But you won't spend your week sitting behind a desk waiting for the phone to ring.
We want someone who will get out into the Bellarine and Geelong community, develop referral networks, build relationships with local businesses and community groups, create events and promotions, and continually find new ways of introducing prospective residents to the lifestyle on offer.
What you'll be doing
You will take ownership of the sales pipeline and manage prospective residents from initial enquiry through to move-in. You'll conduct personalised tours, maintain strong follow-up, negotiate and close sales, manage your CRM and build relationships with buyers, families and other stakeholders.
You'll also become a visible face of the village in the local community, developing referral relationships, attending and creating local events, generating grassroots marketing opportunities and working closely with the broader sales, marketing and village teams.
And yes, there are targets. This is a genuine sales role and we want someone who enjoys achieving them.
But how you achieve them matters.
Who are we looking for?
You might currently be selling residential property around Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, Surf Coast or surrounding region and be wondering whether there is another way to use everything you've learned in real estate.
There is.
You will ideally bring:
In residential real estate, you might sell someone's house and never see them again.
Here, you may see the person whose home you sold years later, and they'll still remember that you helped them make the move.
You're helping people leave behind maintenance, isolation or a home that no longer suits them and discover something new: Freedom. Independence. Security. Friendship. Community.
That's what you're really selling.
If you're an accomplished property salesperson who loves people as much as you love achieving a result, I'd like to hear from you.
For a confidential discussion, contact:
Dan Sawyer @ Sawyer Sourcing on 0403 899 143 dan@sawyersourcing.com.au
Applications will be reviewed as received, so don't wait for a closing date if this sounds like you.
