Join Our Team - Become a Business Broker A business broker acts as an intermediary between a seller and a buyer. A business broker always works to protect the confidentiality of the seller, and to represent the best interests of the seller. To be a business broker in Australia you will need to obtain correct licensing in your state. BENCHMARK can assist you with this process.
Over the last 11 years BENCHMARK has earned a reputation as a leader in business sales in Australia. This is a consequence of simply getting results for our clients. The key to our success is that we engage with specialists – not just salespeople, and we ensure that the business brokers that work with BENCHMARK have expertise in one or more areas, and together we capitalise on that expertise by working in that area of speciality. For Example; restaurant owners sell restaurants, logistics experts sell transport businesses, etc.
At BENCHMARK we have also learned that simply adding more brokers to our team - for the sake of having a larger team than other companies, is not productive. We have learned that we need to respond to demand to grow. This philosophy has led to success in many ways. Our brokers are more successful, our clients are better served, and we attract more quality business owners to work with us - because we get results.
Areas of demand change regularly. For example, right now we need:
Our performance-based compensation plan removes the limits from your earnings potential, and allows you to enjoy a very lucrative career, but this also means that you must demonstrate an ability to support yourself financially during the start-up phase, which usually takes around four to five months.
When you join BENCHMARK, you are choosing to team up with the one of Australia’s largest business broking firms. BENCHMARK has been instrumental in the sale of 100’s of businesses across Australia – in fact we conduct at least 140 transactions a year, and BENCHMARK is one of Australia’s largest brokerages.
As a BENCHMARK Business Broker, you will be working on a daily basis with other professionals: business owners, buyers, entrepreneurs, accountants, lawyers, financial institutions, as well as franchisors and governments. You will serve people from all walks of life. They will come to you for help to sell (or buy) a business. You will be their negotiator, counsellor, marketer, advisor and confidant. You have the opportunity to help shape many people’s futures, and really make a difference. Your personal integrity will not just be supremely important – it will be paramount.
At BENCHMARK we have successfully trained people from many different backgrounds to become a business broker. Almost all BENCHMARK brokers have operated their own businesses – so we really know what it’s like to be in business. We understand the process of buying and selling and the emotional stress that it can have on both the buyer and seller.
The BENCHMARK philosophy is different, you don’t work for BENCHMARK, we work to help you. Come and see how this different philosophy works for you.
