To work with a data-rich tech led business which has huge potential to improve and add value to that process for both consumers and estate agents is a marketeer’s dream” says Gary. 

“I want people to understand why Zoopla provides an offering unlike anything out there and to be the destination of choice for consumers and agents.”
