Darlington-based My Property Box has welcomed five new members of staff to its team who between them have amassed more than 45 years’ experience in the lettings industry.

My Property Box, which was founded by managing director Ben Quaintrell in 2012, completed two merger deals this year involving Holt Estate Agents and Sandersons Lettings.

Quaintrell says: “I’m pleased to welcome our five new members of staff, all of whom bring a great deal of expertise and knowledge, especially in the area of customer service. We will continue to recruit the very best people to allow My Property Box to continue to expand and prosper.”

Head of lettings Marie Wilmot joins from Bridgfords, with Julie Flynn arriving from Browns Property Management and Jemma McCready, Holly Dickinson and Clare Wade all previously having worked at Sandersons Lettings prior to its merger with My Property Box.
