Work with Clarke Residential
We are a small, award-winning independent agency in Chorley that sells homes for 103% of asking price in an average of 28 days. We are growing, and we are looking for the right person to grow with us.
A different kind of agency to work for
Clarke Residential was set up by Callum Clarke, who still values, lists, shows and sells homes himself every week. There are no departments, no call centre and no handing clients between staff. One person looks after a sale from valuation to completion, and clients tell us that is why they choose us.
It works. We hold the Excellent Award for Sales in the Best Estate Agent Guide 2027, we are rated 5.0 on Google from 38 reviews, and we consistently sell for more than asking. We cover Chorley and the surrounding villages from our office on Queen's Road, and we are building a growing presence in Worsley and the western side of Salford.
We are now at the point where the business needs more people in it. The role below is open now. If it sounds like you, get in touch. If you think you could add something to the business that we have not thought of, get in touch anyway.
Small team, real responsibility
You will not be a number. What you do will visibly matter to the business.
An award-winning brand
Independently assessed and rated among the best in the country for sales.
A proper office
Queen's Road, Chorley. A real base to work from, not a laptop at the kitchen table.
Room to grow
We are expanding, and the people who join now will shape what the business becomes.
Office Administrator & Sales Support
The person who keeps the office running and every sale moving. Three fixed days a week, 20 hours, paid hourly.
What the job involves
You will be the first voice most people hear when they ring us, and the person who knows where every sale is up to. On a typical day you will:
- Book viewings and valuations into the diary and confirm them with everyone involved
- Chase solicitors, mortgage brokers and buyers so that sales keep moving
- Keep vendors updated on where their sale is up to, before they have to ask
- Check ID and complete anti-money-laundering checks on new clients
- Upload new listings to Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket and check they are right
- Order boards, brochures and marketing for new instructions
- Answer the phone, reply to enquiries and look after anyone who comes into the office
Who we are looking for
Ideally you have worked in estate agency, lettings or sales progression before, so you already know what a memorandum of sale is and why solicitors need chasing. If you have not but you have run a busy office and you are comfortable on the phone with people who are stressed about the biggest purchase of their lives, we would still like to hear from you.
You need to be organised, you need to chase things without being told to, and you need to be happy working Saturdays, because that is when buyers are out looking.
What you get
- £13.50 to £14.50 an hour depending on experience
- Statutory holiday pay and pension
- Fixed days every week, so you can plan around it
- A small, friendly office where your work is noticed
- Real responsibility from day one, and the chance to grow as the business does
- Potential for full-time hours for the right candidate as the business grows
- A genuine route to progression - we would rather promote from within than hire from outside, and this role can lead to a sales position and, in time, a Partner Agent role with your own patch
Neither of these, but you think you should be here?
We are growing and we would rather hear from a good person than miss them because we had not written the job description yet. Send us a note and tell us what you would bring.
