About the Role

• The Head of Sales & Investor Relations owns the organization’s entire commercial front from the first buyer conversation to final handover. This is not a standard sales management role. You must be equally comfortable closing a premium apartment sale with a high-net-worth individual and presenting a bulk investment opportunity to an institutional real estate fund.
• You will build the sales function from the ground up, establish the organization’s buyer pipeline before construction starts, and be the primary commercial face of the company in the Lagos market. You will have significant autonomy and direct access to the Managing Director. In return, we expect commercial results from someone who owns the outcome personally.
