- An eagerness to learn about real estate and develop your administration skills.

- Strong communication and organisational skills.

- The ability to manage multiple tasks and meet deadlines.

- A positive attitude and the ability to work as part of a team.

- A willingness to take on both creative projects and practical everyday tasks.

- A driver’s licence, or the ability to obtain one within your first six months of employment.

Experience with design tools, photography or video editing would be welcome, but enthusiasm and a willingness to learn are just as important.

You’ll join a supportive team, receive practical training and build skills across media, marketing, administration and real estate. This is a great opportunity to explore your interests and develop a career in a rapid-paced industry.
