Role Overview:

We are looking for a hands-on, charismatic, and results-driven Sales Manager to take ownership of our sales growth. In this pivotal role, you will act as a true Player-Coach.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Co-Building the Team: Partner directly with company founders to recruit, select, onboard, and train a high-performing team of real estate consultants, fostering a collaborative sales environment.

  • Developer Relations: Lead direct communication and partnership negotiations with top-tier Egyptian property developers to secure prime inventories, launch access, and competitive terms.

  • Sales Strategy & Target Achievement: Oversee daily team operations, manage sales pipelines, monitor KPIs, and execute strategic workflow optimizations to ensure consistent team revenue growth.

  • Training & Skill Development: Conduct weekly pitch refinement, role-playing, and objection-handling sessions to continuously elevate the closing rate of the sales team.

  • Performance & KPI Governance: Monitor conversion rates and individual sales metrics to enforce accountability and ensure every consultant hits their targets.

  • Sales Forecasting & Reporting: Deliver accurate monthly and quarterly revenue projections directly to company founders based on pipeline analysis.

  • Launch & Inventory Optimization: Coordinate directly with developers during new master-plan launches to ensure the team receives priority inventory access and comprehensive project training.

  • Lead Management & Conversion: Monitor lead distribution and follow-up speed to ensure immediate response times and maximize conversion rates throughout the sales pipeline.

What We Offer

  • Strategic Business Ownership: The concrete opportunity to propose, build, and lead specialized commercial divisions or expansion initiatives (e.g., dedicated international investor desks, exclusive developer task forces) as you demonstrate leadership and strategic vision.

  • Executive Career Advancement: Direct access to company founders with a clear pathway toward executive leadership roles and equity/partnership opportunities as our footprint in New Cairo expands.

  • High-Impact Culture: A merit-based, entrepreneurial environment where performance, strategic autonomy, and team building are directly recognized and rewarded.

Requirements:

  • At least 5 years of proven experience in real estate sales and team management within the Greater Cairo market (New Cairo experience strongly preferred).

  • Target Achievement Track Record: Demonstrated history of consistently meeting and exceeding sales targets, monthly KPIs, and revenue quotas.

  • Strong, direct network of property developers, investors, and HNWIs.

  • Proven track record of closing primary and secondary market property deals.

  • Natural leadership ability with a focus on mentoring, talent acquisition, and team performance.

  • Fluency in Arabic and English (spoken and written). (Knowledge of Italian is plus).

  • Entrepreneurial mindset with the drive to build a market presence from scratch.
