Portfolio Sales Executive

Location: Remote

Salary: £38,000 per annum

Vacancy Type: Permanent, Full Time

The organisation is offering an exciting internal opportunity for a motivated and detail-driven colleague to step into the role of Portfolio Sales Executive. This is an important position within their Homes directorate, helping them deliver on their mission that everyone should have the opportunity to have a place they can call home.

As part of the Portfolio Options Team, you’ll play a key role in shaping the future of their housing portfolio—driving efficient property disposals, supporting wider strategic projects, and ensuring funds are reinvested to build more homes for families in need.

As a Portfolio Sales Executive, you will:

  • Work closely with Customer Experience colleagues to identify properties suitable for disposal and maintain accurate decision-making records.
  • Investigate void properties to confirm eligibility for disposal and ensure required surplus targets can be achieved.
  • Instruct and liaise with external solicitors and estate agents, ensuring legal compliance and achieving best value.
  • Gather stock, performance and cost data to support robust decision-making across the Portfolio Options function.
  • Assist in preparing monthly performance reports for Boards, summarising progress on sales, disposals and appraisals.
  • Monitor and report team budgets, ensuring financial accuracy and value for money.
  • Update internal systems with sales progression and completion details to support effective post-sale processes.
  • Assess Social Housing Grant levels and legal charges as part of pre-disposal due diligence.
  • Build strong working relationships across the organisation and with external partners, including local authorities and fibre installation providers.
  • Support the delivery of the wider Portfolio Options Strategy and key projects within the Homes Strategy.

What they’re looking for

They’d love to hear from colleagues who can bring:

  • Experience in managing property sales in the housing sector.
  • Understanding of legal, financial and contractual aspects of residential sales.
  • Knowledge of social housing, planning considerations and alternative land uses (desirable).
  • Strong analytical and decision-making skills.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities.
  • Good financial literacy and IT capability.
  • Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage conflicting deadlines.
  • Skilled at negotiation, report writing and engaging a range of audiences.
  • Confident, proactive and able to work at pace.
  • Comfortable working independently while contributing effectively to team goals.

Appointment to this role will be subject to satisfactory references and possession of a valid Right to Work document.
