Sales Jobs at Persimmon Group

A good salesperson is critical to our success as the first contact a customer has is with the Sales Negotiator in the Sales Office.

Responsibility for the Sales Department falls to the Sales Director or Sales Manager, who will have responsibility for a dedicated sales team based on our developments, together with support staff in the Regional office.

Marketing

Their first step in the process is to decide the marketing strategy for a new development, including the establishment of a sales office and show house.
Quality sales brochures and the co-ordination of newspaper, magazine and website advertising to attract potential purchasers will also be co-ordinated to maximise the sales potential of each development.

Sales

Our on-site sales team will be managed by the Field Sales Manager who will appoint local Sales Negotiators (sometimes called Sales Advisors or Sales Executives).
The on-site sales teams ensure all customers are made aware of our additional products to personalise their home. Customers can choose from the “Finishing Touches” range at various stages of construction and place their own stamp on their new home – all of which is coordinated by the Sales Negotiator.
Often we can assist the sales process by buying a customer’s existing property. This process is also the responsibility of the Sales Department, who may employ a Part-Exchange Manager or Part-Exchange Co-ordinator to facilitate these deals.

Sales Support

Some members of the Sales Team are based at the regional office, such as Sales Co-ordinators and Sales Administrators. As well as progressing purchases through the system and liaising with Conveyancers, they will assist the Land Department by providing market research and pricing for proposed land purchases.
The Sales Department will also help the Technical Department to compile designs and specifications to enable the company to realise the maximum revenue from each house type.
The department works closely with the Construction Department regarding build progress, which is critical to the achievement of forecast and budget targets.
