Franchise Recruitment Manager

Franchise Recruitment Manager easyStorage | Maidenhead (hybrid) | Full time Join the UK's fastest growing storage brand We're growing fast and we've got big plans. Now we need an experienced, ambitious person to help us recruit the franchisees who'll take easyStorage to the next level. easyStorage is part of the easy family of brands (best known for easyJet), and we do storage the easy way: no frills, no hidden extras, no nonsense. Our drive up self storage sites let customers pull up right beside their own storage container, load and unload with ease, and pay a fair price for the space they need. An opportunity worth selling You'll be offering something people will want to hear about:

• A brand everyone knows. The easy name brings instant recognition and trust.
• A light touch model. Drive up container storage is simple to run, with no large buildings to staff and manage.
• Recurring revenue. Customers rent their space month by month, so the business is built on ongoing income rather than one off sales.
• A low capital entry point. We provide the containers and rent them to our franchisees, so there's no need to buy them upfront. What you'll be doing You'll own franchise recruitment from first conversation to signed agreement. That means:
• Finding the right people. Generate leads, spot potential, and qualify the prospects worth pursuing.
• Selling the opportunity. Run meetings, assessments and negotiations, and put together franchise proposals people get excited about.
• Hosting discovery days. Show candidates how the business works, what running it involves, and what our brand stands for.
• Teaming up with marketing. Shape targeted recruitment campaigns that reach the right audience.
• Keeping score. Keep your pipeline and recruitment metrics sharp and up to date.
• Making the handover smooth. Work with our operations and legal teams to get agreements over the line and new partners off to a strong start.
• Being our eyes and ears. Tell leadership what you're seeing in the market, who's applying, and how we can make our franchise offer even stronger. Who we're looking for You're experienced, self driven and ambitious. You don't wait to be told what to do. You see a target and go after it. You'll bring:
