Background

About Tom Newton

Positive, tenacious, hardworking, and persistent individual. Goal and project driven, with my own high standards and the intention to deliver over the expectations set by others. Broad experience covering operations, client satisfaction, stakeholder management, sales and management. I bring a positive work environment whilst focusing on client interactions and revenue growth. In my 2.5 years at Chestertons I worked across London in two differing roles. Initially handling Corporate & Short Let enquiries across all 33 offices, dealing with both national and international clients. I then moved to long-term lettings working in two separate locations and achieving 185% of my yearly target, in fees. With COVID-19 starting and the future of the London housing market uncertain, an incredible opportunity to join Pinga, a delivery-tech start up, arose and I jumped on it. Initially joining as a Operations Consultant, I grew with the company to Chief Operating Officer where I oversaw the day-to-day running of the company, executing and planning strategies for future growth. I looked after a team of 600 riders across London and Nottingham in a gig economy format. In 2 years at heycar I supported the B2B sales function, driving new business and client retention during the worst time the UK car market has ever seen. Being a 1.5 year old scale-up at the time I joined, heycar was ideally suited to harnessing the opportunities that a difficult market brings. I worked closely with the OEM & Captive investors to launch national campaigns driving users to the site and strengthening relationships with the dealer network. heycar launching an eCommerce D2C function was only a matter of time. Here I worked closely with the newly formed eCommerce Sales Team to build an automated end-to-end pipeline on HubSpot capable of handling £5.5m+ of vehicle sales per month that was both easy for the team to use and provided relevant stakeholders with clearly accessible data & reports. Returned to a pure B2B sales role with Headout, uniting the best tours, attractions, and tickets with the best platform and users around.
