Hutly names Sally Hamilton as new General Manager of Growth

Fri, 17th May 2024

Australian technology platform Hutly has recently bolstered its senior leadership team with the appointment of Sally Hamilton as the new General Manager of Growth. The Australian owned and operated company, committed to revolutionising property and payment transactions through innovative digital solutions, welcomed the former PEXA General Manager of Customer Success to an intrinsic role, driving the brands' growth-specific and customer-centric strategies.

Hamilton's appointment follows the recent announcement in February of industry pioneer John Natsioulas as Chief Technology Officer (CTO), marking another strategic recruitment for the company. Hamilton will bring her decade of industry experience, including an impressive eight-year tenure at PEXA, to the role. At PEXA, Hamilton led large teams handling the development and implementation of growth strategies, robust partnership creation, and comprehensive training initiatives.

In her new leadership position at Hutly, Hamilton expressed her excitement to contribute to the growth of services like Bondable, a unique solution that could significantly transform the rental industry. "I am thrilled to join Hutly, a leading innovator in the property industry, and contribute to the growth of services like Bondable," said Hamilton. "With my expertise in customer success and strategic growth, I look forward to driving Hutly's mission forward and addressing the key challenges faced by tenants and landlords, making property transactions secure and safe for everyone."

Bondable, which launched earlier this year, is Australia's first technology-driven subscription rental bond service. Priced at $19.99 per month, it replaces traditional cash bonds, providing a seamless, digitally-enabled dispute mediation service along with a complimentary bond guarantee. The revolutionary service is one of the many ways Hutly is making property transactions more accessible and secure.

Jeremy Hastings, Hutly Founder and Managing Director, shared his view on Hamilton's appointment. He said, "Sally's seasoned leadership and industry expertise will be crucial in embedding a customer-centric approach and driving our key growth initiatives. Her dedication to cultivating cohesive and high-performing teams aligns perfectly with our vision for Hutly."

"Hutly was founded on the belief that we can create a more equitable and transparent property market. To achieve this, we need leaders who understand the industry's complexities and have the passion and drive to innovate. Sally's extensive experience in customer success and her proven ability to lead large teams make her the perfect fit for this role," Hastings added.

Since its establishment in 2018, Hutly has proven a major player in the property industry, servicing over 47 percent of the East Coast property market. With 4,000 agencies on the platform, 1 million contracts processed annually, and around $18 billion in contract value on the platform every year, Hutly shows a promising trajectory for continued growth under the strengthened leadership with Hamilton's appointment.
