How to hire new homes staff in London without delays 
 

For property developers, every day a sales suite sits under-staffed can impact customer experience. Whether you need to hire new homes staff in London for a large regeneration scheme or a boutique development, speed is essential but so is quality. 

At deverellsmith, our New Homes Recruitment team specialises in connecting developers with experienced sales and marketing talent who can hit the ground running. 

Why urgent hiring matters for new homes sales 

In London’s competitive property market, launch dates are often set months in advance and delays to staffing can mean: 

  • Missed sales targets during peak launch phases 

  • Overworked existing team members 

  • Reduced customer service standards during viewings 

By working with a recruitment partner who understands the new homes recruitment process from start to finish, you can prevent costly hiring delays. 

 

Steps to hire new homes staff in London without delays 

1. Use strategic recruitment from the start 

Strategic recruitment means planning your staffing needs in advance, aligning with your sales programme, and having talent pipelines ready for both permanent and temporary hires. 

Tip: We maintain an active network of qualified sales negotiators, client relationship managers, and marketing professionals ready for immediate placement. 

2. Prioritise candidate experience and speed 

Top candidates in the new homes sector often have multiple offers. A smooth interview process, clear timelines, and competitive packages can prevent losing them to a competitor. 

3. Work with a specialist agency 

A generalist recruiter may not have access to candidates who understand the unique demands of selling off-plan property. Our dedicated New Homes Recruitment team sources professionals who can adapt to your brand and hit sales targets quickly. 

Our proven approach to fast new homes recruitment 

  • Talent pool access: Immediate introductions to pre-vetted candidates. 

  • Market insight: Salary and commission benchmarking to attract top performers. 

  • Flexible solutions: Permanent hires, contract staff, and temporary cover. 

This ensures your developments are staffed in time for marketing launches, show home openings, and key sales phases.
