The role

We are looking for an Agent Support Assistant to join our three-person Agent Support Team. This is a junior role offering the opportunity to develop experience in customer support, administration and business operations within a growing property network.

As part of the first-line support team, you will help self-employed agents across the UK with day-to-day enquiries, company systems and administrative processes. You will work alongside experienced colleagues who will provide training, guidance and support as you develop in the role.

This opportunity would suit someone who is organised, confident communicating by telephone and email, and motivated to provide an excellent service. Previous estate-agency experience would be helpful but is not essential.

• Provide friendly and professional first-line support to agents by telephone, email and other agreed communication channels.
• Respond to routine operational enquiries and help resolve day-to-day issues.
• Guide agents in using company systems, processes and business platforms.
• Record enquiries accurately and ensure they are followed through to resolution.
• Escalate more complex queries to the appropriate colleague while keeping the agent informed.
• Build positive working relationships with agents by providing a responsive and reliable service.

• Maintain accurate information across our CRM and internal systems.
• Process documentation and update spreadsheets, reports and internal records.
• Help monitor shared inboxes and coordinate incoming requests.
• Assist with system access, user accounts and routine platform enquiries.
• Support the team with testing and implementing system or process improvements.
• Identify recurring questions or issues that could help improve agent guidance and internal processes.

• Provide administrative support during the onboarding of new agents.
• Help prepare, check and maintain onboarding and compliance documentation.
• Coordinate training arrangements, system access and other onboarding activities.
• Process information accurately and in accordance with company procedures.
• Refer compliance questions or exceptions to the appropriate team member rather than making compliance decisions independently.

Essential

• Strong organisational and administrative skills.
• Clear and confident written and verbal communication.
• A friendly, patient and customer-focused approach.
• Good attention to detail and a commitment to accurate work.
• Confidence using Microsoft Office and learning new systems.
• The ability to organise and prioritise a varied workload.
• A practical approach to solving straightforward problems.
• A positive attitude and willingness to learn.

Desirable

• Previous experience in administration, customer service or a support role.
• Experience using a CRM or another business management system.
• Experience with in estate agency, property or a network-based business.

Full training will be provided, so we are particularly interested in your attitude, communication skills and ability to learn.

• Friendly, professional and approachable.
• Organised, dependable and conscientious.
• Calm and helpful when responding to questions or problems.
• Comfortable working as part of a small, collaborative team.
• Willing to ask questions and learn from more experienced colleagues.
• Adaptable and positive about changes to systems and processes.

This is a full-time role based in our headquarters in Little Hadham. The position follows a 9am to 5pm schedule, Monday to Friday, with occasional flexibility required to accommodate new agent schedules or training sessions.

You will join a supportive and experienced team while gaining exposure to a wide range of business operations. The role offers an opportunity to build valuable skills in agent support, administration, systems and property-network operations, with scope to take on additional responsibility as your experience and the business develop.

Benefits: 28 days’ annual leave, including bank holidays, and employer pension contributions in accordance with the company pension…
