Real Estate Team Leader (Growth & Recruiting Focus)

Are you a high-performing leader who knows how to recruit, develop people, and drive real business growth?

This is not a traditional management role. This is an opportunity to build and lead a business within a business—attracting top talent, developing agents into high producers, and driving measurable growth.

Who We Are

At KW Coastal Living, we don’t just run real estate offices—we build businesses and develop leaders. As part of Keller Williams, we provide industry-leading training, proven models, and technology. What sets us apart is our focus on growth, accountability, and long-term success for our people.

The Opportunity

As the Team Leader, you are responsible for the growth and performance of the Market Center. Your primary focus is recruiting, developing agents, and driving productivity and profitability.

You will directly impact:

• Agent count and retention
• Productivity and performance
• Revenue growth and profitability
• Culture and standards within the office

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Thrives in a performance-driven environment
• Thinks in terms of growth, not maintenance
• Takes ownership of outcomes and results
• Wants a platform to build, lead, and scale something meaningful

If you are looking for a predictable role with clearly defined boundaries, this is likely not the right fit.

If you are looking for a high-impact leadership opportunity with real upside, you will find that here.

Salary Range: $70,000.00 - $150,000.00 per year

Who You Are

• A proven leader with a track record of driving growth in sales, business development, or a performance-based environment
• Results-oriented and highly accountable — you measure success by outcomes, not activity
• Skilled at influencing, recruiting, and developing people into higher levels of performance
• Competitive, driven, and energized by hitting and exceeding goals
• Comfortable setting expectations, having direct conversations, and holding others accountable
• Operates with a high level of discipline, consistency, and personal ownership

Real estate experience is a plus, but not required. Candidates from other industries must demonstrate a strong history of sales performance, recruiting, or team leadership with measurable results.

This role is not a fit for candidates seeking a support, administrative, or operations-focused position.

What You’ll Do

• Recruit and attract top real estate talent — consistently identify, engage, and convert high-potential and high-producing agents
• Drive productivity and performance — coach agents to grow their businesses and increase production
• Own agent growth through disciplined recruiting activity and conversion — success in this role requires maintaining a high level of recruiting conversations, consistent daily appointments, and achieving defined monthly hiring targets. This is a performance-driven role with clear expectations and accountability tied directly to results.
• Lead a results-driven culture — set expectations, create accountability, and raise performance standards
• Partner on financial performance — work directly with ownership to drive profitability and business expansion

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Performance-based compensation — base salary + uncapped bonus tied directly to growth and profitability
• A proven platform — leverage Keller Williams systems, training, and models to accelerate success
• Leadership with vision — work alongside ownership focused on expansion and long-term growth
• Scale and impact — your results directly influence the trajectory of the business, the people, and the culture
