In an industry flooded with agents who compete for commissions, we choose to do things differently at Sloat Group. We change the atmosphere in real estate by enlisting employees with an opportunity for profit sharing. This allows each of our team members to focus on creating a positive client experience.

The right candidate for our team assistant will have strong organizational and scheduling skills, excellent customer service, and always keep the needs of the client as priority number one. The team assistant will help our team achieve its goals while they provide a high level of service to our clients.

Our ideal candidate is someone who comes from a background in hospitality, customer service, or administration – real estate experience is a plus. What we need is someone who can work independently and help organize a lot of moving pieces. Sloat Group is here to help people find the right homes, and build a relationship with trust, professionalism, and integrity throughout the process. That’s how we keep our clients coming back to us with each home they move to.

Bottom Line: We are looking for a driven, organized, and hopefully fun individual with a positive attitude. As a small team, we quickly implement good ideas and value collaboration. There is room to grow within this position and our team!

We recommend that you read the entire job posting before applying.

• You are... (and your colleagues know that you are)

• Clean. Your desk is so clean and tidy that they aren’t even sure you showed up at work today! (but you did!)
• Well-dressed. You take pride in your personal appearance. While you may not own the latest edition of Vogue Magazine, you dress for the job you want and you always assume that you may have in-person contact with a client any day of the week.
• Kind. You treat everyone in the office like they may one day be your boss. Regardless of their title or salary, you treat them politely, and professionally, smile and make eye contact when speaking to them.
• An effective communicator. You write emails and communicate with colleagues and clients in a way that would make your parents proud.
