Parkers Estate Agents is an independent, family-owned, family-run estate agency with two branches serving the communities of Witney and Eynsham. We have built our reputation on honest advice, personal service and an intimate knowledge of the local property market. As a family business, we value long-term relationships — with our clients, our vendors, and the people who work with us.
This is a rare opportunity to join our leadership team, taking ownership of our Eynsham branch and building on the strong foundations already in place.
The Role
We are looking for a driven and capable Branch Manager to lead our Eynsham office, which focuses exclusively on residential sales. This is an ideal next step for an experienced residential valuer who is ready to take their first management role and make it their own.
You will take full responsibility for the day-to‑day running of the branch, leading a small team, driving sales performance and ensuring every client — vendor and buyer alike — receives the outstanding level of service that defines our reputation across West Oxfordshire.
As part of a two‑branch family business, flexibility is at the heart of how we operate. There will be occasions where you are asked to support our Witney branch — whether covering valuations, assisting with staffing or lending your expertise during busy periods. We are one team across two offices, and a collaborative, can‑do attitude is essential to making that work well.
Key Responsibilities

Manage the day‑to‑day operations of the Eynsham branch, ensuring the office runs efficiently and professionally.
