About Us

We are a hyper-growth Tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We were formed after our co-founders - Harry and Ben - experienced the pain-points of renting a house while at university, and knew that there had to be a better way.

As our National Business Development Manager, you’ll be responsible for driving new business and expanding Housr’s presence across the UK. Working alongside the National Account Manager (who focuses on existing partnerships), your mission will be to identify opportunities, generate leads, and close deals that align with our long-term commercial strategy.

This is a role for a natural hunter — someone who thrives on results, knows how to build rapport from scratch, and can spot commercial potential from a mile off. You’ll be externally focused, travelling to meet prospects and develop partnerships, while staying plugged into the team with regular in-office collaboration.

Key Responsibilities

• New Business Development Identify, approach, and secure new partner agents and strategic accounts across the UK.
• Market Expansion Help grow Housr’s market footprint by developing new regional opportunities and partnerships.
• Reporting & CRM Keep accurate records of outreach, pipeline, and performance through the company CRM and regular reporting.
• Lead Generation & Pipeline Management Build and manage a robust sales pipeline through a mix of outbound outreach, networking, referrals, and industry insight.
• Sales Strategy & Execution Work closely with leadership to define and execute a smart, scalable business development strategy.
• Relationship Building Start strong relationships from scratch — earning trust quickly and positioning Housr as a must-have partner.
• Collaboration & Handover Collaborate with the National Account Manager to ensure a smooth handover from new business wins to ongoing account management.
  
  

• Tenacious and self-motivated — a true go-getter with relentless drive
• Commercially astute — understands the levers that drive business success
• Entrepreneurial mindset — spots opportunities where others don’t
• Excellent communicator — persuasive, confident, and great at building rapport
• Organised and trustworthy — able to manage time, travel, and pipeline with minimal oversight
• Target-driven — thrives under pressure and celebrates hitting ambitious goals
• Confident, outgoing, and professional — represents Housr with polish and charisma
  
  

• Demonstrated experience growing B2B businesses and achieving ambitious sales targets
• Minimum of 2 years proven success in new business, sales, or commercial development roles
• Experience in property, PropTech, or fast-growth startup environments is a bonus
• Experience selling into property, lettings, or real estate sectors is a plus
• Travel: Regular UK travel required — you must have a full UK driving licence and access to a car
  
  

• Salary - Genuinely Market Competitive
• Holiday - 25 days off, plus bank holidays each year
• Free Gym Membership - Keep fit, with free use of our on-site gym
• Monthly Team Lunches - At the end of each month, we all grab lunch together as a team, and also have the afternoon off to focus on ourselves
• Company socials - A chance to let our hair down as a team. Past socials have ranged from paintball to ping pong tournaments - we’re quite competitive!
• Central Office Space - Located in the heart of Manchester, and complete with on-site barista
• Hybrid Work Policy - We’re big advocates of in-person collaboration. We’re in the office four days a week, with Thursday as a team-wide work from home day.
  
  

• First Stage - Exploratory screening call (30 mins)
• Second Stage - Video call with our VP Revenue (Oli) (30 mins)
• Third Stage - We’ll set you a take home task, requiring no more than 2hrs of your time. We’ll make it fun, we promise. We’d then like you to present your task to us F2F:
• Part 1 - A chance for you to walk through your take-home task and for us to ask questions (30 mins)
• Part 2 - Wider ranging questions about your experiences and motivations for working at Housr, approaches to certain scenarios, working style and what you’ll bring to this role (30 mins)
• Offer - If we think it’s a good fit, we’ll make you an offer!
