McGrath Estate Agents have announced that James Hayashi has joined the company in the newly created role of Regional Sales Leader for its high-performing sales team located across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs footprint.
Mr Hayashi brings more than 13 years’ experience across many sectors of the real estate industry from sales, auctioneering, recruitment and sales management.
Kon Stathopoulos, Head of Company Sales for McGrath, said this was a very considered and important appointment and one that has been met with much enthusiasm within the three offices under the Eastern Suburbs footprint – Edgecliff, Coogee and Maroubra.
“When searching for someone to lead such an experienced and high-performing sales team, we were committed to finding a person of outstanding calibre that would without a doubt add value to each of our agents’ businesses. James will provide the leadership, support and coaching required for our current sales teams, and will be charged with growing our agent numbers across the three offices.
“James comes to us with a wealth of real estate experience, having worked himself as an agent and more recently as a coach and sales manager. He’s an outstanding auctioneer, having been trained by Damien Cooley, and I believe will be a great addition to the incredible talent pool we have with our exclusive auctioneers.”
In joining McGrath, James said he was attracted by its current leadership and management team, and the company’s focus on learning and development.
“McGrath is a truly iconic and respected brand and this is a fantastic opportunity for not only my own personal development, but where I’m provided with the support systems necessary to drive internal growth and focus on external recruitment. I plan to hit the ground running,” said James.
In addition to his tenure at Cooley Auctions, James has also worked at Bresic Whitney, and most recently for three years at PPD.
