Meet the team of Hunters Estate Agents in Scunthorpe:

The Hunters Scunthorpe Estate Agents team is managed by Andy Thompson, who has worked within the industry for ten years, managing two branches with different Estate Agents previously. Andy was driven by experience to strive to give customers a more individual service, which is where Hunters fulfilled his vision. Hunters encapsulated Andy?s beliefs and aspirations and the Scunthorpe branch was born.

Working alongside Andy is Sharon, who has resided in Scunthorpe all of her life, and is very familiar with the area. Sharon moved to the company 5 years ago, bringing with her ample customer service skills. Sharon is the office Sales Progressor ? an essential role, which sees her liaising with solicitors and clients on a daily basis, to assist in the smooth path between offer acceptance and completion. Sharon also deals with the day to day running of the office and is highly skilled in interpreting Andy?s ?unusual? handwriting style (which makes your typical doctors script look positively perfect!) Sharon is an asset to the team and the customers love her.

The third member of the Hunters Estate Agents in Scunthorpe team is Verity. Also with an array of customer service and administrative jobs in her past, Verity has worked with Andy since the start of the business and is Marketing Manager. Verity produces all the sales material for the properties including brochures and floorplans, which we offer as standard. Verity also deals with the social media side of the business, which is becoming increasingly popular.

Working alongside Andy in sales is Kevin Buttrick. Kevin worked with Hunters Scunthorpe in 2013 ? originally covering Crowle and surrounding areas. He has re-joined the team in 2018 and is a valuable asset!

Recently joining Hunters Estate Agents Scunthorpe is Chloe, who also brings along many years of customer service experience. Chloe is currently office based, but will be joining the sales team doing viewings and valuations after training in this area.

Here at Hunters, Scunthorpe, we don?t just come into the office to get the job done. We care about the job, the service and the people. We don?t wait for things to happen ? we try our best to make things happen. The manager, Andy?s, favourite saying is ?Hope is not a strategy?. I think this about sums the team up ? working closely with both the client and all other persons involved in the process ? and chain if necessary ? hope is never a strategy.
