James Broadbent

I joined Whitegates in January 2017 with 7 years Estate Agency experience. My sales background began in 2008 when I worked for an opticians selling lenses and frames. The transition from retail to sales was ‘eye opening’ and I have not ‘looked back’ since.!
My career in Estate Agency began at an independent agent in my home town of Huddersfield where I started as a Sales & Lettings Negotiator. Within a couple of years I was promoted to a Senior office based role.
My role at Whitegates again involves both sales & lettings, dealing with offers and applications from start to finish. The main reason for joining Whitegates (aside of their excellent reputation) was my ambition to progress further to Valuing properties as part of my chosen career development, which I now do and really enjoy the variation in my role.
In terms of personality I think all my colleagues will agree that I am the funniest person they have ever had the privilege to work alongside and I take great pleasure in bringing happiness to the workplace.
When I’m not hard at work I enjoy going to the gym and watching football. I’m a huge Arsenal fan but also support my local team Huddersfield Town who are taking the Premier League by storm!!
