06 Mar Championing Women in Property: Celebrating 40% Female Promotion Rate for International Women’s Day

At a time when the property industry is still evolving toward greater gender balance, ASAP is proud to celebrate International Women’s Day 2026 by spotlighting the success and progression of the women who drive our business forward. With 86% of our workforce made up of women and 40% of female team members promoted since joining, we’re committed to ensuring that talented people have clear pathways to grow.

As a specialist provider of outsourced sales progression for estate agents across the UK, our business thrives on expertise, communication, and exceptional customer service. These strengths are reflected every day in the dedication and leadership of our team.

Creating Career Pathways in Sales Progression

Our focus on structured development has been central to our growth as a trusted partner for estate agents looking to streamline their conveyancing and completion pipelines.

Operations Director Jamie Taylor, who has been promoted three times since joining the business in 2016 as a sales progressor, reflects on her journey:

“I’ve grown with the business. My progression has been supported by mentoring, training and clear development pathways. We’ve introduced structured career routes so people understand what they can work towards, and we actively support them in getting there.”

Flexible Working That Supports Real Lives

The demands of the property sector can be intense, which is why we’ve built an environment where talented people can thrive professionally without compromising personal responsibilities.

We operate on a hybrid working business model and flexible hours are particularly valued by our team when it comes to caring duties, empowering them to excel in their roles.

Alongside flexible working, we invest heavily in professional development, including:

CeSP qualification support for sales progressors

A structured management development programme

A buddy system to help new starters succeed

Ongoing coaching and career mapping

Championing Female Leadership in Property

Managing Director Richard Megson adds: “In an industry that’s historically been predominantly male, we’re proud to not only employ a mainly female workforce, but to encourage career progression into senior roles where desired. Our experience has demonstrated that when you invest in people and trust them to deliver, you gain stronger leadership, better retention and consistent performance.”

These values shape our approach to recruitment, growth and client delivery, ensuring that our partners benefit from an empowered, skilled and highly motivated team.

Driving Growth Through People

Since our founding in 2014, we have built a strong national reputation for reducing transaction times, lowering fall‑through rates and providing reliable outsourced sales progression to estate agents across the UK.

Our people remain at the core of that success. By investing in development, fostering flexibility and championing equality, we’re building a business where both employees and estate agents benefit from sustained excellence.

As we mark International Women’s Day 2026, we’re proud to celebrate the women behind ASAP, whose expertise powers our continued expansion and strengthens the experience we provide to estate agents, conveyancers and home movers alike.
