Sales Manager - Real Estate

Role Overview This is a founding role, not a caretaking one. We're not hiring someone to manage an existing team, we're hiring someone to build it. We're looking for a candidate with a genuine start-up mentality. The right person leads with ownership, not as an employee executing instructions. They arrive with a plan, put their own numbers on the table and are comfortable operating without the guardrails of a fully built-out organisation. Ideally, the right candidate is/was working within the structure of an SME or a larger, established UAE agency, who has hit a ceiling on growth and is ready to build something of their own.
