Deposit-free renting platform flatfair appoints Elisabeth Yates as marketing head

March 11, 2020

Flatfair, an alternative deposit scheme and rental platform, has appointed former William Hill and Google strategist as its Head of Marketing.

Elisabeth Yates joins the proptech firm after spending two and a half years as senior strategy manager for online gaming at William Hill and a short stint as a marketing campaigns manager for Google prior to that.

She also spent four years working in strategy for voucher site Groupon.

Yates said:

“Flatfair’s payment technology is revolutionising the way we think about renting.

“The industry is moving in the right direction, but this is a vital time for tenants, landlords and agents alike to embrace the technology that has brought so much to other aspects of our lives, and I am looking forward to collectively driving this change at flatfair.”

Her appointment comes after flatfair, which offers a deposit alternative for a one-off fee and uses Open Banking for speedy referencing, continues to grow the business after attracting $11 million through a Series A fundraising last year.
