Andrew Jolliffe, Ray White's Asia Pacific Director of Hotels and Leisure, was named the top agent at the 100 year old company with annual sales in excess of $30 billion at the annual Ray White International Awards on the Gold Coast on Monday. Jolliffe also took out the Director’s Cup Award and Ray White Hotels Australia was judged the top marketer in the commercial group.

Ray White is the largest property group in Australasia, with over 8000 employees spread across 1000 individual offices internationally. The awards were held during the Ray White Group’s inaugural Connect Conference, attended by over 2000 delegates from Australia, China, New Zealand, the U.S.A. and Indonesia including News Corp Chief Lachlan Murdoch and Dominoes CEO Don Meij. 

In the past year, Jolliffe has overseen the exclusive sale of The Newport Arms, the Woolloomooloo Bay Hotel and  been engaged to sell Eureka Fund's 200 room Crowne Plaza Hotel on Terrigal Beach. "It's been a very rewarding 12 months for all members of the team and we have embraced the opportunity both the market and our valued clients have afforded us," Jolliffe said.

Jolliffe said he was humbled to be named the top agent as Ray White's talent pool is "scarily good, and the collective drive to succeed most clear."

Ray White Director and CEO Dan White said Ray White Hotels Australia had sold 16 hotels in a 10 week period during the first half of 2015.  "The volume of sales in such a concentrated time is unprecedented and there is more to come with a number of other hotel deals in the pipeline," said White.
