Client Reviews
Chris joined Sandersons in 2009 specifically to launch the Ashford office. We subsequently saw unprecedented growth in Ashford as new customers benefited from the attention to detail and flair that Chris and his team brought to the role. In 2011 Chris moved to our Canterbury office and currently heads up an experienced sales team that has continued to grow year on year. Chris has previously worked in kitchen design, recruitment and as a Procurement Manager for a Kent based property developer.
Why are Sandersons different?
Knowing that my opinion matters is a big reason I enjoy working for Sandersons. Not tying clients into fixed term contracts was an idea I put forward and it was embraced by the Directors. I believe it is one of the key ways we are different to other agents.
I have lived in and around Canterbury for over 30 years and currently live in North Canterbury. I met my wife in 2003 and we have two children who attend Blean Primary School. Although a lot of my time is spent with my family, I have a real passion for sport. Over the years I have particularly enjoyed playing football and squash competitively. Unfortunately following ACL injuries and two knee operations I have had to find other ways to keep fit. Since 2013 I have trained at City Boxing in Canterbury and although I don’t fight competitively, I enjoy pushing myself with this type of training. In 2010 I raised money for the British Heart Foundation by cycling 54 miles from London to Brighton. In May 2016 I took part in a Tough Mudder event to raise money for Dancing Eye Syndrome Support Trust. This is a charity that has helped support and raise awareness of a very rare condition called Opsoclonus Myoclonus Syndrome (OMS), which my niece has been diagnosed with. Tough Mudder is a challenging obstacle course set over 11 miles and I raised £2,321 for the charity. In 2017, accompanied by my wife and two young children I took part in a Colour Me Purple 5k run to raise money for The Wisdom Hospice and we raised £223.
What advice would you give your younger self?
Spend less time worrying about things outside of your own control.
Heidi joined Sandersons in November 2017 as a Sales Negotiator. Before coming to Sandersons she was running a bespoke wedding ring business from home and bringing up her three children. The children have now grown up and she felt it was time to pursue a full time challenging position working in an office environment as part of a team.
Why are Sandersons different? Sandersons commitment to their clients and the friendly atmosphere in the office was something that impressed me when choosing a new working position.

What advice would you give your younger self?
Don't grow up too quickly and have as much fun as possible before the children arrive

She also has experience of working in sales for a couple of large retail companies. Antonia is currently work at Sandersons full time as a sales negotiator, this involves taking clients on viewings, answering calls and dealing with enquires.
What do you like about Sandersons approach?
I like working for a company that puts both vendors and applicants in the forefront of everything they do, as they don’t tie people in with contracts they rely solely on building relationships in order to keep people using them.
I have always lived in Ashford along with my family. I have a large family living in and around Ashford, in my spare time I will always be spending time with them or my group of friends. As my father is Sardinian I also have a lot of relatives living all over the island, whenever I have a chance to get away, you’ll find me on the beautiful island of Sardinia. I have also recently been and travelled around Sri Lanka, seeing the elephants in the wild was one of the most incredible experiences.
