I am originally from Tonbridge, but have lived in the Maidstone area for 20 years. I have an 11 year old son and live with my partner and our dog named Bruce. (See if you can work out the name connection from my picture!) I am a typical Man Utd fan in the sense that I don't come from Manchester. However, I do have a season ticket so can lay claim to the fact that I have seen them play "live" dozens of times! I like most sports including football, rugby and enjoy playing golf. I have recently taken up shooting as new hobby. I love spending time with my son and socialising with family and friends, including a love for live music- therefore going to gigs is a must for me. Finally, I have to admit to being a Batman geek and I am always looking looking for items to add to my collection!

Because of our ability to tailor our services to our customer requirements.

In my spare time I enjoy long country walks with my dogs & being a personal groom for my daughter when she's horse riding. What advice would you give your younger self? To believe in myself more

Alex joined Sandersons in 2019 as our Senior New Homes Manager. She brings with her a wealth of property experience and is thoroughly enjoying working for an independent Estate Agent with a focus on customer service.
Why are Sandersons different?
The difference for me from working for a corporate to an independent is amazing, all the team are team players and all help each other out in the office and always put the customer first- the only down side is my waistband is getting larger due to all the treats our clients bring in for us!
I started in March 2019 as a New Homes Manager. Even though I am new to this role I have been in estate agency for over 13 years starting as a trainee negotiator and working my way up to Assistant Regional Manager.
In October 21017 I became a mum and was very lucky to have a year maternity. I decided I did not want to work full time so went back to my old position part time. I was then made redundant which in hind sight was the best thing that ever happened to me as it gave me a new opportunity with Sandersons and I love my role. I get to work with developers, the general public, gain new business opportunities and see sales through to completion. The difference for me from working for a corporate to an independent is amazing, all the team are team players and all help each other out in the office and always put the customer first, only down side is my waistband is getting larger due to all the treats our clients bring in for us. In regards to hobbies when I get time to myself I like to go to my spin classes but my main enjoyment is spending time with my family and going on our family adventures from weekends away at Peppa Pig world to days out at Leeds Castle feeding the swans. Of course I love my holidays even
though they have changed now I have a toddler, gone are the days of a cocktails and a sun lounger.
What advice would you give your younger self?
The advice I would give my younger self would be don’t be so hard on yourself.
Julie joined Sandersons as a lettings negotiator in our Maidstone office in 2009 after a background working in media sales. She gained valuable experience within the lettings team, then joined the sales team and progressed into the role of valuations manager for both lettings and sales. She has gained a wealth of knowledge since joining in 2009 and built some incredibly strong working relationships with our clients. Julie is absolutely thriving in her current role as Lettings Manager for our Maidstone office. What do you like about Sandersons' approach? We don't have problems, we have solutions!

Outside of work I love to spend time with my family and my two grand dogs -Frank and Ernie (our two little Dachshund). I also help out at all the craft fairs in Penshurst Place and the Wealden show for the Barefoot welder, a local Designer and fabricator. I also like to go skiing and dancing when possible. My husband comes from Maidstone and we have lived in the area for around 34 years so my knowledge of the area is pretty good! What advice would you give your younger self? Don't judge a book by its cover
