Employer Bio:
Celebrating 26 years in business, Gartland is a leading name in Geelong’s property market. With an independent operational model and market-leading team, Gartland delivers tailored real estate solutions across residential, commercial, and projects. Their approach is deliberately different—nimble, high-end, and deeply customised.
Renowned for being at the forefront of an evolving industry, Gartland combines local insight with modern capability, leveraging the latest software, training, and digital tools to deliver exceptional outcomes across all property sectors.
The Job:
As a Residential Sales Agent at Gartland, you’ll take ownership of the end-to-end sales process—listing and selling residential property across the Greater Geelong region. You’ll lead everything from market appraisals and tailored marketing strategy through to buyer negotiations, contract oversight, settlement, and handover, ensuring your clients feel informed and supported every step of the way.
You’ll spend your days engaging with sellers and buyers, fielding enquiries, conducting inspections, hosting open homes, and guiding clients through one of life’s most important decisions. Your success will be powered by a high-performing team, smart systems, and a trusted local brand that opens doors.
The role is fast-paced and varied, with strong support from your colleagues and the freedom to structure your days around results, not red tape. You’ll work collaboratively with both internal and external stakeholders, including Gartland’s in-house digital marketing team, Affiliate Studios, to enhance visibility in a highly competitive market, generate leads, build listing momentum, and strengthen your local presence.
Importantly, you’ll be backed by a culture that prioritises collaboration over competition—and for the right person, there’s a clear pathway to business partnership.
Benefits On Offer:
Gartland fosters a progressive, energising workplace culture that values ambition, contribution, and continuous improvement. Your success will be recognised and rewarded through:
- A generous, performance-driven commission structure, free from unnecessary overheads or additional network fees
- Exclusive access to Affiliate Studios, Gartland’s in-house digital marketing agency—an invaluable asset to elevate not only your property campaigns, but your personal brand, local profile, and long-term earning potential
- Workplace wellbeing programs, including fresh weekly fruit, mental health leave, complimentary Upstate Studios classes, and access to leading resources
- Opportunities to participate in meaningful community initiatives, with Gartland supporting a wide range of causes across the region including Catwalk for Cancer, Run Geelong, Lazarus Community Centre and more
- Career development tailored to your goals, with a long-term pathway to partnership for the right applicant
Culture Snapshot:
The culture at Gartland is respectful, collegiate and grounded in a strong sense of purpose. Free from territory tension or internal rivalries, the team operates with high trust and mutual support. Agents are encouraged to take ownership of their business, think strategically, and shape their career in a way that reflects their individual ambition and strengths.
Skills Required:
This role suits an ambitious, well-presented professional with at least 12 months’ experience in residential real estate and a current Agent’s Representative Certificate or Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice. Saturday work is expected, with some evening flexibility required to accommodate inspections and client meetings. Candidates must also demonstrate:
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- A sound understanding of residential property trends
- Proven ability to build relationships, manage client expectations, and navigate complex sales processes
- Resilience, proactivity, and the ability to work independently and confidently in a dynamic environment
- Excellent organisation, attention to detail, and a genuine desire to build a long-term career in the industry
