Create the career you love
I started at Flippa in a sales capacity where I provided assistance directly to Flippa users, helping them to buy and sell effectively on the platform. I simultaneously gained exposure to various other facets of the business — from marketing to product management. After 2 years at Flippa I was able to move into a strategic partnerships role where I have been able to directly impact new strategic initiatives and create and manage new revenue streams for Flippa including product integrations. Flippa gives its employees the chance to find their fit and use their skills and experience effectively. Professional development is encouraged and there are so many opportunities for career progression.
Flippa has a growth mindset in everything we do, but it really shines in employee growth and development. I’ve always had an affinity for working with people and the entirety of my career previously was working directly with customers (external to the business). As part of Flippa’s ongoing personal development program, I’d identified with my manager that the people space was where I wanted to eventually pivot to and instead focus more on working with people internal to the business! Given the incredible growth we’ve seen at Flippa in the last 12 months, headcount has needed to grow to keep up with market demand and this was the perfect opportunity for me to take a step into the people world as a People & Culture Advisor working on recruitment and generalist activities.
I joined Flippa after many years of casually browsing deals on the platform and was immediately impressed by the amount of freedom I was given to experiment and try things my own way. I started in an outbound sales capacity, winning new listings to the platform and helping entrepreneurs achieve successful exits. After 18 months of hands-on experience I moved into a relationship manager role which is a whole new world of aggregators, private equity groups and multi-million dollar exits for our users. I’ve never been as excited about my career as I am right now and it feels like the sky’s the limit.
Flippa has made me a better writer and communicator. Every day, I am constantly challenged to find creative ways to effectively communicate with our audience through the written word. Whether it’s watching users engage with a written piece online, or researching and educating our audience on a particular topic, the outcome has been rewarding. I feel like my work matters here and I’m just getting started.
Changing careers is never an easy thing to do, but everyone, from my team colleagues, manager and other stakeholders have been nothing but supportive. The greatest thing at Flippa is that no matter your seniority, from day one you will have the opportunity to work on challenging and interesting projects which have an impact on the success of the company. Everyone at Flippa is treated with respect and their voices matter. A great environment to develop with endless support and benefits along the way. You can definitely feel the buzz and excitement around Flippa as we continue to grow!
I started with Flippa in 2013 in our customer support team helping our customers to navigate our marketplace and make the most of it. In 2014 I moved to head up our Marketplace Integrity team to help customers with issues they may have and to keep our marketplace safe and secure for all using it. I left Melbourne in 2015 to work remotely for Flippa and moved into heading up our Post Sale Enablement team in 2018 to provide after sales support to customers. Flippa has been a great place to work and has allowed me to work remotely while providing the support needed to thrive and enjoy a work life balance as well as help to develop professionally and move through different areas of the business.
I started my career at Flippa covering sales, technical support and transaction facilitation functions. This was an exciting time because it allowed me to meet entrepreneurs and learn about businesses of all kinds from all over the world. As part of the team’s training and development program, I was recently offered a move into the product area, which I was very interested in. I start every day with a shot of energy to see that I am part of a company that is hungry for new projects and embraces its people to grow together.
