The Company
Perch is transforming the way people buy and sell their homes. Simplifying it all, to the way it probably should have always been; fair and true to market, straightforward, easy. Perch helps customers sell their home on their schedule without the hassles, at market price. Perch enables home buyers to choose from an inventory of certified pre-owned houses, making it easy to discover and close on a move-in ready, quality home.
 
Every year in the U.S., $1.3 trillion of single family residences transact, generating $70 billion of brokers fees in a process that has changed little in decades. For the average American, the home purchase and sale process takes months, creates anxiety and is filled with uncertainty and hassle. Perch offers a modern alternative, making one of life's biggest decisions -- the sale and purchase of a home -- less intimidating.
 
Perch has 100 employees and is headquartered in New York with offices in Texas. We are backed by top investors including FirstMark, Accomplice, and Juxtapose.

Role and Responsibilities

Perch makes the home sale process easy for home owners by enabling them to request an offer on our website for Perch to purchase their home directly. Alternatively, Perch can help you buy and sell by combining a guaranteed home sale with the ability to get top dollar from the market. This enables a homeowner to shop for homes without worrying about selling. 

As Senior Inside Sales Manager, you and your team will be responsible for new client acquisition for all services and overall customer satisfaction and success. You will coach the team on relationship development and become an expert in Perch’s unique approach to making buying and selling a home easy and stress free. 

The Senior Sales Manager demands a unique combination of creativity, drive, and team management skills. You will leverage your past experience by setting targets, then building and coaching your team to exceed those targets. This leader must be a strategic thinker, solution oriented, and optimistic.

This is a hands-on role at an early-stage company. The ideal candidate is someone who is comfortable in ambiguity and willing to roll up their sleeves on any task big or small in order for us to help deliver an incredible home buying and selling experience for our customers.
