      Latimer is looking for an experienced and dynamic senior new homes sales professional. With a growing pipeline of new developments and our expanding geographical reach, we’re recruiting a Regional Sales Director to cover the North region, reporting into the National Sales Director.

      What sets Latimer apart is our long-term commitment to the people who live in our homes. Our model is not to build and then move onto the next site. We’re long-term stewards of place, committed to building sustainable and thriving communities.

      Some of the key duties include:

      • Provide leadership of the regional sales team including managing all field staff and agents to drive sales performance

      • Design sales strategies including the set-up of on-site sales operations including sales centres and show homes

      • Carry out market research and lead on all market assessments for new sales opportunities in the region to make recommendations to the Director of Sales and the Board

      • Optimise value through product development, mix, design, specification, sales strategies, pricing strategies and constant market and competitor reviews

      • Work collaboratively with the Land, New Business and Delivery teams from project inception through to completion, to professionally represent the sales operation and drive value at all times

      • Close working with the Head of Marketing and Head of Sales Progression to drive performance with early off plan sales launches and 28 day reservation to exchange timeframes

      What we’re looking for

      We’re seeking an experienced Director who can drive sales and achieve success. Our team is looking for enthusiastic and driven individuals who have a proven track record of successful delivery. You should have a strong background in driving sales performance against budget and a deep understanding of the UK property market.

      As a successful candidate, you should be an excellent negotiator with strong interpersonal and communication skills. You should be able to communicate effectively to a wide audience and oversee a significant sales operation. You’ll be managing major schemes across the North whilst providing leadership of the regional sales team including managing all field staff and agents to drive sales performance.

      We require someone with experience at Director level in Sales who can think outside the box and bring new ideas and solutions to make the role their own.

      If you have extensive experience working with developers and house builders and the ability to maximize new build developments through design, mix, specification, and creativity, we want to hear from you!
