Started in Limehouse in 2004, Franklyn James has gone from strength to strength. There have been great times – London 2012 Olympics and not such great times – Northern Rock 2008. A further office opened on Westferry Road in 2007.

We believe that if a job is worth doing, it is worth doing really well. No half measures. We take pride in our work, which means we put in the hours, we work hard for our clients and we earn our fee.

Communication is key, but not just empty words or exercises in box ticking – we believe in telling it like it is so that we can make things happen. A lack of transparency and clarity can lead to expectations being mismanaged and time and money being wasted on both sides. We won’t make claims that we can’t support and we won’t make promises that we can’t keep. By sticking to these principles we ensure that our clients know exactly what to expect from us and that we are all working towards the same goals.

How can we help?

What we're like

Our vision of how a great Estate Agency should be run can only be realised if we have a team who all share the same values and beliefs. That is why we make sure that every employee has the same professional approach to their role and the same desire to work in an honest and frank way.

It is easy to find people who are enthusiastic about delivering good news, but it is the nature of our business that we don’t always have good news to deliver to our clients. Properties don’t always go under offer on the first viewing and homes will always need maintenance and repair. The skills we demand of our team are the ability to tackle problems head-on, to be proactive in finding solutions and above all to communicate in a friendly and warm manner, whether the news is great – a good offer – or not so great – a leaky boiler.

Our team

A business is only as good as its staff. It’s a real bonus to have state-of-the-art offices with stylish chairs and funky artwork, but it’s the experience of talking to, and meeting with, Franklyn James team members which defines a client’s experience of using Franklyn James.

All of our staff are experienced professionals who take their responsibilities to client and company very seriously. To ensure a wide skills set across the company we have members of staff from a variety of backgrounds, such as legal, financial and other types of sales. This provides a good well of knowledge for all to draw from and also, though the promotion of in-house training and mentoring, a healthy working environment.

Our aim is to gain and retain the best possible staff in the marketplace, as we appreciate just how important this is, not just when it comes to making a great first impression, but also in order to build lasting relationships with clients and customers. Read more about our team members here.

Careers

Franklyn James Estate Agency employs honest, responsible, hardworking people to fulfil a range of different roles in its high street offices.

You don’t have to be a negotiator to work in an estate agency. Some jobs are totally office-based, in a quiet environment, with fixed salaries. Others involve a lot of travelling around the local area, numerous telephone conversations and a portion of the salary is performance related.

We like our staff to be flexible too, as it’s not uncommon for staff members to change roles within the team; a person who starts out as a lettings negotiator may later switch to sales or property management.

We value people who are committed, ambitious, reliable and efficient. So, whatever role you’re looking for, if you enjoy working as part of a dynamic, motivated team then get in touch with us.
