Associate

What do you do?
I have been in property recruitment for over 13 years and couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I focus specifically on roles within the lettings side of the business, including front line roles at all levels, property management and administration. I am proud to have progressed to Associate level during my time at Property Personnel, and look forward to working with my wonderful team for many more years to come!

Georgina joined the Lettings & Management Division of Property Personnel in 2011. She graduated from the University of Sussex with a degree in Media and Cultural Studies, and then worked within the hospitality industry. Having decided that this was not the career path for her, Georgina decided to focus on a career in recruitment.

Georgina loves dealing with people and thrives in a challenging environment. She is very competitive, and her strengths are her communication and time management skills. She particularly enjoys the variety involved in meeting new people, and in building a lasting relationship with them.

In October 2014, Georgina and Sam tied the knot, and in March 2016 welcomed their first daughter, Isla. Following her maternity leave, Georgina settled back into her role seamlessly, and in January 2017 was rewarded for her achievements and her loyalty with promotion to Associate level. Georgina and Sam welcomed their second daughter, Connie, in 2021 and Isla has absolutely loved being a big sister.

On the rare occasions that she has any spare time, Georgina loves socialising with friends, shopping or catching up on a good TV show!

At Property Personnel we’re firm believers that the secret to our success is down to our fantastic team. Meet Georgina, a specialist lettings & management recruiter (and self-confessed ‘grammar freak’!). We sat down with Georgina to ask her some questions about her role here at Property Personnel.
