Alison worked in sales for a national company and completed 14 very successful years. Alison then moved into Estate Agency 11 years ago, initially as an administrator before soon working her way up to become a negotiator. She joined Manns and Manns as Sales Progressor in July 2017 training directly with Helen Manns. Alison comments: I have loved every minute of working for Manns and Manns. Building a rapport with vendors and purchasers, chasing through the chain and updating all concerned on progress made, is a large part of my job description. Every day brings different challenges and being there to help in any way I can is paramount to me to ensure our clients know they have someone to turn to no matter how simple or complex the request. I will endeavour to make their sale or purchase as smooth and stress free as I possibly can in order to reap a successful completion. Communication is the key and having a great team in the office who are always willing to assist helps make the wheels turn smoothly. In my down time I enjoy baking and there is nothing like beating the ingredients of a cake together to get rid of the stress of the day. Love having friends and family around and cooking a great meal.
