Lettings Negotiator

Lettings Negotiator: Premium Portfolio, Higher Basic & Real Career Growth

Trade corporate red tape for a dominant independent property business where your performance directly drives your earnings and progression.

With over 15 years established as a market leader across the West Midlands, this independent agency consistently holds the largest let-agreed share in the region. Unlike corporate environments weighed down by endless administrative reporting, this firm focuses on smart prop-tech systems, market-leading landlord retention, and giving negotiators the autonomy to manage high-quality portfolios. Staff retention is well above the industry average, with most team members staying over four years due to genuine career development pathways and a transparent bonus model.

The role focuses on delivering an exceptional, end-to-end letting experience across a high-volume portfolio of residential properties in Walsall and surrounding areas. Rather than pushing low-value transactions, you will manage relationships with quality landlords and prospective tenants, turning initial enquiries into long-term tenancies. You will join an established team with full admin and compliance support, leaving you free to focus on matching tenants, securing instructions, and negotiating deals.

Key responsibilities (brief)

• Convert prospective tenant enquiries into confirmed viewings across a varied property portfolio.
• Conduct engaging property viewings that highlight key home features and secure high-value offers.
• Negotiate tenancy terms between landlords and applicants to achieve maximum rental yield and quick turnarounds.
• Build ongoing relationships with regional landlords to secure repeat business and new portfolio instructions.
• Qualify tenant applications through thorough background checks and financial verifications.
• Collaborate with dedicated property managers to ensure seamless move-ins and handover experiences.
• Identify cross-selling opportunities for financial products, landlord insurance, and fully managed service tiers.
• Maintain precise CRM records to drive efficient pipeline management and automated tenant tracking.

What will help you succeed

• Proven track record within residential lettings negotiation or property management in the UK property market.
• Strong local geographic knowledge of Walsall and the West Midlands rental landscape.
• Demonstrated ability to close deals, manage pipeline progression, and handle landlord negotiations confidentially.
• A customer-focused approach that prioritises building long-term working relationships over short-term wins.
• Full UK driving licence and access to your own reliable vehicle.

What is on offer

• Basic salary up to £28,000 depending on experience, plus an uncapped monthly commission structure.
• Clear career progression pathway to Senior Negotiator and Lettings Management.
• Modern prop-tech systems and automated marketing support to cut down on admin time.
• Company mileage allowance and performance-based team incentives.
• Structured professional development funding, including support towards ARLA / Propertymark qualifications.
• Supportive, collaborative office environment with flexible working arrangements upon passing probation.
