The estate agency recruitment problem

A bad hire in estate agency costs more than the fee to get it right.

Estate agencies that hire quickly from a generic recruitment agency often find candidates who can describe estate agency work but have never done it well. Broomham Recruitment's sole focus on the property sector means every candidate they present understands what it actually takes to perform in agency.

We keep hiring people who leave within six months.

Early attrition in estate agency is almost always a values and culture mismatch. Broomham Recruitment screens for culture fit alongside skills - identifying candidates whose motivations align with how your agency works.

We need a senior hire but do not want to approach competitors directly.

Director and branch manager appointments require discretion. Broomham Recruitment manages approaches to candidates who are not actively looking - so you get access to the talent pool most agencies cannot reach.

We are paying too much or too little for the talent we are getting.

Market salary benchmarking is part of every Broomham Recruitment brief. You get clarity on what the right candidate costs and why, before you start the search.

Generic recruiters send us CVs from people who have never worked in agency.

A recruiter who does not understand estate agency sends you candidates who match keywords, not culture. Broomham Recruitment screens every candidate against the specific demands of estate and lettings agency work.

How Broomham Recruitment works for estate agencies

Six ways specialist estate agency recruitment delivers better hires.

Broomham Recruitment has developed a process for estate agency hiring that goes deeper than a CV check - because the wrong hire at any level in an agency has a cost that is never fully visible on a spreadsheet.

1

Role briefing and specification

A detailed conversation about the role, the team, the agency culture, the management style and the growth context. The brief is what makes the search specific.

2

Active and passive candidate search

Broomham Recruitment approaches both active job-seekers and candidates who are performing well in their current agency and not looking - expanding the available pool significantly.

3

Culture-fit screening

Interviews and assessments designed to identify candidates who will thrive in your specific agency environment, not just those who have done a similar job elsewhere.

4

Salary benchmarking

Market-rate salary guidance for every role so you go into the offer conversation with confidence about what the market is paying for the calibre of candidate you need.

5

Interview management

Broomham Recruitment manages the process from initial shortlist to final interview - briefing candidates, gathering feedback and maintaining momentum through the hiring process.

6

Post-placement support

Check-ins with both agency and candidate in the first months to ensure the placement is working and address any concerns before they become problems.

Your journey with Broomham Recruitment

From first contact to results - five steps.

Most agencies are up and running quickly. Here is how it typically goes.

1

Brief call

A conversation about the role, the team and what success looks like for this hire.

2

Search and screen

Broomham Recruitment identifies and approaches candidates across both active and passive pools, screening for skills and culture fit.

3

Shortlist presentation

A shortlist of pre-screened candidates with detailed notes on each. No padding, no CVs without context.

4

Interview process

Interviews arranged and managed. Broomham Recruitment gathers feedback from both sides and keeps the process moving.

5

Offer and placement

Salary negotiation, offer management and post-placement support. The job is not done at placement.
