Associates in recognition of the excellent contribution they have
made to the success of the business
Award-winning estate agency Mundys in Lincoln has strengthened
its senior management team by making two of its most committed and
talented staff members associates.
Chris Laughton (30) and Hymie Bentley (27) have worked at Mundys
for a combined total of 12 years and in that time they have
progressed through the ranks.
Chris started working for the firm as an accompanied viewer in
2003 before being promoted to negotiator, senior negotiator and
then valuer in 2009. He is currently studying for a Diploma in
Residential Estate Agency (DipREA) and has taken over the
management of the sales team while Residential Sales Manager Vicki
Wilkinson is on maternity leave.
Hymie started as a residential sales negotiator before becoming
Lettings Director where he has overseen key service standard
improvements and a significant growth in business.
After undertaking studies through the Royal Institution of
Chartered Surveyors over recent years, he will shortly qualify as a
Chartered Surveyor. He said: "I've really enjoyed working with
people on a day-to-day basis during the most important transaction
of their lives and it's also been great to see the Lettings
Department grow so significantly."
Senior Partner Philip Barnatt said: "Becoming an associate is a
fantastic achievement and the position is reserved for employees
who have been with Mundys for some time and have greatly
contributed to the success of the company.
"It's a reward for people who have the Mundys ethos at heart,
have used their initiative to come up with new ideas and are wholly
committed to the further growth and positive enhancement of the
business.
"Hymie for example has taken on responsibility for the running
of our Lettings Department and managed to improve our already high
standards of customer service while Chris has been invaluable in
helping Mundys keep up to date with new IT.
"He has made huge strides in the positive use of computer and
telephone technology, including making effective use of social
media websites such as Facebook and Twitter, as well as helping to
drive forward the Residential Sales Department."
Following this well deserved achievement, the partners are sure
that Chris and Hymie will provide further enhancement to the Mundys
management team and continued development.
