Job description

Are you successful in sales or business development but feel someone else’s commission structure is limiting your earnings?

The Auction Company is expanding across the UK, and we are looking for driven, commercially minded people to generate property auction opportunities and build relationships with sellers, estate agents and property professionals.

Previous property or auction experience is not essential. We provide the training, technology and ongoing support needed to build your knowledge and operate professionally.

This is not a salaried position. It is a self-employed business opportunity with the support of a national auction network behind you.

What’s in it for you?

  • Earn 2% of the final sale price on direct-to-seller instructions, with a minimum commission of £2,500 + VAT

  • Earn 1% of the final sale price on qualifying estate-agent opportunities, with a minimum commission of £1,250 + VAT

  • Uncapped earning potential

  • No postcode restrictions

  • Work across any area and property price range

  • Flexible working hours

  • Full operational support, allowing you to concentrate on generating business and winning instructions

For example:

  • £150,000 sale = £3,000 commission

  • £300,000 sale = £6,000 commission

  • £600,000 sale = £12,000 commission

What you’ll be doing

You will generate suitable property opportunities through methods including:

  • Direct prospecting

  • Networking

  • Social media

  • Direct mail

  • Introducer relationships

  • Estate-agent partnerships

  • Your existing personal and professional contacts

You will speak with property owners, understand their circumstances and explain how auction could provide a faster and more secure route to sale.

Once a property is instructed, The Auction Company provides the auction infrastructure, including marketing on Rightmove, legal-pack coordination, buyer management and delivery of the auction.

Your focus is building relationships, creating opportunities and growing your pipeline.

What we’ll give you

  • Complete property-auction training

  • Online learning and regular team sessions

  • Access to AUCTRA, our purpose-built auction management platform

  • Valuation and pricing support

  • Marketing and seller resources

  • Administrative and compliance support

  • Access to additional referral opportunities through our professional panels

Who we’re looking for

You could currently work in:

  • Business development

  • Field sales

  • Estate agency

  • Recruitment

  • Automotive sales

  • Financial services

  • Account management

  • Property sourcing or investment

  • Another target-driven sales environment

You must be:

  • Comfortable generating your own opportunities

  • Confident speaking with sellers and professional partners

  • Self-motivated, resilient and commercially focused

  • Capable of developing and managing a sales pipeline

  • Willing to complete the required training and compliance

  • Motivated by performance-based earnings

Important information

This is a self-employed, commission-only opportunity. There is no basic salary, guaranteed income or guaranteed supply of leads.

The advertised £30,000–£120,000 OTE represents potential earnings and is not guaranteed. Your earnings will depend on the opportunities you generate and the properties successfully sold.

If you have the sales ability and ambition to build your own income within the property auction sector, apply today.
