Property Consultant Outreach & Client VA
Budget: £2 – £5 GBP
Overview
I am looking to appoint a proactive and organised Virtual Assistant / Outreach & Growth Coordinator to assist with the growth of a new online platform within the UK property and construction sector.
The platform connects commercial property clients, developers and project managers with specialist consultants who provide professional reports required for planning applications, property acquisition and development projects.
Examples of professionals who may join the platform include: Chartered Surveyors / Structural Engineers / Environmental Consultants / Planning Consultants / Ecologists / Fire Engineers / Energy Consultants / Arboricultural Consultants
Your role will be to identify suitable consultants, contact them, and follow up routinely to encourage them to join the platform.
The objective is to build a strong and credible network of professionals across the UK.
Strategic Approach
The growth strategy will follow a regional approach. Rather than contacting the whole UK at once, the work will focus on one region at a time, for example: North West / North East / Yorkshire / Midlands / South East / South West
The goal is to systematically identify relevant consultants within each region, contact them professionally, and follow up where appropriate.
This approach ensures the platform develops strong regional coverage.
Responsibilities
Research and Identification - Identify relevant consultancy firms within the selected region.
Examples include firms providing: Building surveying / Structural engineering / Environmental consultancy /Planning consultancy / Ecology / Fire engineering / Energy consultancy / Specialist property reports
Research may involve: Google searches / LinkedIn / Professional directories / Company websites / Industry listings
Building a Structured Consultant Database - Create and maintain an organised database including: Company name / Contact name / Email address of persons rther than generic info@ or admis@ etc… / Phone numbers of contacts / Website / Consultancy discipline / Location / region
This database will form the foundation for outreach activities.
Targeted Outreach - Contact suitable consultants to introduce the platform and invite them to join. This will involve: Sending introduction emails / Sending polite follow-up emails / Responding to basic queries where appropriate
The emphasis is on relevant and thoughtful outreach rather than mass emailing.
Routine Follow-Up - Many professionals do not respond to the first message. A key part of the role will be: Maintaining a follow-up schedule / Re-contacting firms where appropriate / Building awareness over time
Tracking Progress Maintain a simple system showing: Identified consultants / Contacted consultants / Follow-up communications / Interested consultants / Registered consultants
Organisation and attention to detail are essential.
Important Note on Approach - Quality is more important than volume. This role is not about sending large numbers of emails to unqualified leads. Instead, the focus should be on: Identifying relevant firms / Contacting them professionally / Maintaining follow-up communication / Gradually building a credible professional network
Requirements
The ideal candidate will: Have excellent written English / Have experience with research, lead generation or outreach / Be organised and detail-oriented / Be able to work independently / Be comfortable communicating with professionals / Have experience using Google Sheets / Excel
Experience in the property, construction or professional services sector would be beneficial but is not essential.
Project Details Remote role / Flexible hours / Initially 5–15 hours per week / Potential for long-term work if successful
Budget - The project has a limited initial budget, so efficiency and productivity are important. The aim is to build momentum and grow the network steadily.
When Applying Please Include Please include the following in your proposal:
1. Examples of similar research or outreach work you have completed
2. Tools you have used for lead generation or outreach
