*PICON is our in-house terminology that describes the software platform that is used to manage short-term rental properties.

Overview

This is a bilingual (FR/EN) role for an auto-entrepreneur. It is a part-time, flexible administrative role with approximately 20-25 hours per week.

The main focus of this role is to add properties to our website (called PICON). This will require liaising with French estate agents and similar agencies to select qualifying properties which they already list on retail rental platforms such as Airbnb. Once identified and validated, each property’s data then needs to be managed across to our web platform and presented to our exacting standards.

Note that this is not a sales role. Commercial relationships will already be established prior to you working with any agency.

Responsibilities

The PICON Onboarding Manager will be responsible for:

• Assisting agencies who are onboarding new PICON properties and supporting (sometimes leading) data transfer activities
• Providing quality control on PICON listings (photos and text)
• Provide feedback to underperforming PICON partners
• Visiting and inspecting properties joining our portal when appropriate
• Liaising with OVO Network partner agencies as required
• Identifying and deal with website content anomalies
• Liaising with the IT team to report any bugs or request improvements

Note that induction training will be given and during the initial 3-month period a buddy will be assigned to ensure a complete transfer of knowledge.

Requirements

We are looking for candidates who have:

• Strong communication skills with the ability to speak native French with a good level of English
• You should be able to communicate with ease with French business owners and agencies
• Strong administrator with exceptional writing and grammar skills (English and French)
• Natural problem solver
• Good keyboard skills and ‘tech savvy’
• Autonomous, self-motivated with excellent organisational and prioritisation skills
• Must enjoy working as part of a team
• Attention to detail
• Must value being responsive, diplomatic, patient, friendly and reliable
• Previous experience in the property rental, estate agent or holiday sector would be an advantage as would previous experience with Avantio, BookingSync or Arkiane software platforms

Why should you apply?

• A great team of people to work with
• Flexible working practices - a mixture of office-based, home-based and field-based work
• Fast-paced and growing industry sector
• Opportunity to progress within a fast-growth business
