Location: Paris Department: Account Manager Employment Type: FullTime

Who We Are

Zefir is building an AI autopilot for home sales in Europe, starting in France: an AI agent runs the entire sale and purchase journey end-to-end, orchestrating local brokers, portals, buyers, and documents.

Backed by over $55 million from top-tier investors like Sequoia Capital, we're committed to accelerating life changes for millions of current and future European homeowners.

Account Management Team

The Account Management team is the link between Zefir and the network of partner real estate agents who sell our clients' homes. The team finds them, trains them, and makes them perform.

As an Account Manager Junior, you own the first half of that journey: you map your market, you find and qualify the agents, and you get them ready. Once an agent is trained and running, you hand them over to an Account Manager, who takes the long-term relationship from there.

This is the entry point into the Account Management team, and the role is built as a training ground. The natural next step is Account Manager.

Responsibilities

Map your local market and identify the agents worth approaching.

Source and qualify agents against Zefir's standards.

Assign signed mandates to the most relevant qualified agents.

Onboard and train new agents until they are autonomous on their first seller appointment.

Hand trained agents over to the Account Management team, and follow through on the handover.

Trigger and manage agent replacements when performance is not there.

Track your KPIs on sourcing, assignment, onboarding and listing lead times.

Improve the sourcing and onboarding playbooks with the Ops and Account Management teams.
