• Learn the full conveyancing journey and support plot progression to ensure exchange deadlines are met.
• Take customer reservations, complete all associated paperwork accurately and efficiently, and ensure customers fully understand both the financial and legal aspects of their purchase.

Stakeholder & Partner Liaison

• Build and maintain strong working relationships with advocates, estate agents, valuers, mortgage lenders and financial advisors.

Compliance & Site Responsibilities

• Ensure full adherence to Dandara Health & Safety and Personal Safety policies.
• Ensure all visitors are aware of PPE requirements when entering construction areas.
• Participate in weekly sales-build meetings, collaborating closely with construction teams to support customer satisfaction and successful handovers.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Strong organisational abilities and attention to detail.
