Sales Consultant

This is a 12 month Fixed term Contract.

We develop and run villages with the wow factor that enhance the lives of our owners, their family and their friends. Through our three brands, Audley Villages, Elysian Residences and Mayfield Villages, we offer stylish apartments and houses complete with the best facilities from bistros and bars, to health clubs and swimming pools. And, of course, exceptional service throughout. What's more, through our dedicated care teams we provide owners as well as customers out in the local community with the support they need to remain independent. It's retirement, but not as the UK has known it.

This is a sales role where you'll be selling not just a property, but also a type of retirement that can offer people a whole new lease of life.
