LJ Hooker has further bolstered its network performance team with the appointment of Bill Dimou as State Manager for South Australia.
Mr Dimou has over 35 years of experience managing teams and focusing on business growth across the retail and real estate sectors. Previously at Newscorp, led and managed various real estate clients both locally in South Australia and nationally.
At LJ Hooker, Mr Dimou will partner with Shane Kempton, State Director of WA & SA, to continue to support the growth of offices and their teams and expand the iconic brand across South Australia.
Mr Dimou said the new role builds on the strengths of his experiences and diverse management background.
"I am delighted to be working for one of the largest and most trusted real estate brands in Australia. In my previous role with Newscorp, LJ Hooker was my client for 10 years and I am excited to now be putting my knowledge and insight into further building the brand and supporting the growth of the offices across South Australia.
“We have a very strong network of people in this state and my main focuses are to support the current teams on the ground and work with each office to help grow their teams and business, while also looking for new business opportunities.
“LJ Hooker’s offering is unmatched with their innovative systems, market-leading resources and high-level support and training. The capability to cater to the various needs of people and offices is particularly exciting to me as it means I can work closely with offices on an individual level to help them thrive in this market," said Mr Dimou.
Mr Kempton said Bill's experience, exemplary reputation and strong network of contacts and authentic personal brand will highly benefit the network.
“Bill’s longstanding role working with Newscorp as South Australia’s real estate director has cemented him as an expert within the industry, and we’re thrilled to have him onboard as his expertise will highly benefit the development of our offices and network.
“As we cement our strategic plans for the next year, it is an ideal time for our South Australian network to have a direct contact at the coal face. With Bill joining us, our franchise network in South Australia will have a dedicated, local industry professional on the ground to assist in our drive for growth.
"Having the right corporate support team in place to foster and develop relationships with our offices is vital in helping them to achieve their growth targets and be successful in a highly competitive environment, which is our clear focus," he said.
