Today we announced plans to open a Denver office to expand its sales force and services. The new office, will open its doors in February with a team of 25 employees in place and plans to expand to up to 100 employees by the end of the year. Current openings include Manger of Insides Sales, Inside Sales Supervisor, Inside Sales Associates and a Customer Service Manager.

“As an organization, we are obsessed with serving our customers.  This expansion is a significant investment in our customers and our overall business growth,” said Sami Inkinen, co-founder and COO, Trulia.com.  “After evaluating 25 different cities across the country it was clear that Denver, as a technology hub with a highly educated work force and a strong talent pool, was where we needed to be. We are excited to bring jobs to the region and better serve our growing customer base.”

During 2010, Trulia gained the most market share of all the leading national real estate sites according to Hitwise(a). This past year, Trulia doubled its workforce and revenue and opened a new 30,000 sq foot office in downtown San Francisco in December.

“In 2010, we focused on building the industry’s best marketing solutions for real estate professionals and that fueled our revenue growth,” said Georg Gerstenfeld, Vice President of Business Services, Trulia.com. “In 2011, we will continue to build products that drive the industry forward. We are focused on becoming the top marketing channel for real estate professionals to reach the tens of millions of consumers that visit Trulia.com each year.”

At Trulia, change is the one thing you can count on! Trulians are discontent with the status quo and that continues to fuel our enthusiasm for growing our business and evolving our organization.  A Trulians’ DNA is comprised of individualism, creativity and the drive to excel.  We are not only making a difference in the Real Estate industry, but positively impacting professionals and consumers lives.  With only a few weeks of the new year behind us, 2011 has already lived up to Trulia’s M.O. and expansion to the mile high city is a particularly exciting and welcomed addition to the family.

The search for a home for Trulia’s contact center started with a force ranked list of must and nice-to-haves – it turned out the search was a relatively easy one. If one could recruit a city, Denver certainly fits our ideal candidate – smart, progressive, motivated, open to adventure & risk, and well…generally likable.

Trulia’s company values, befittingly summarized by “IMPACT” are a powerful amalgam of  traits continually propelling the company and its unique culture forward – Innovate, Make a difference, People matter, Act with integrity, Customer obsessed, Trust & respect each other. Most leading companies built their cultures on strong values, Trulia is no exception. We not only talk the talk but we back it up.  For example, we say People matter and if you look at our benefits, you will see we stand apart from most:

-          Work life balance (generous PTO and holiday programs),

-          Family friendly programs (maternity and paternity leaves, 529 College savings plan, dependent FSA),

-          Healthy lifestyles (great 100% paid employee health benefits, additional assistance programs, Flexible Spending Account)

-          Future (401K employee match, Stock options, life insurance, 529 College Savings plan, credit union, online training opportunities)

We’re all super eager to welcome our newest Denver based Trulians to the team! With sales management, sales reps, customer support management, CS rep, and HR positions still available, we’re looking for some great people to apply! With only a few weeks left before the grand opening we’re busy building the future of the company, embracing each new addition to the team, and of course reveling in the trip so far.
