How PropertyGuru enables Gurus to grow

At PropertyGuru, being ambitious is about more than career progression. Through opportunities to explore different roles, take on new challenges and grow across the business, Gurus are encouraged and equipped to shape their own careers

For Ee-lin, Head of Commercial, this has shaped her journey at PropertyGuru from the start.

“What has kept me here is the opportunity to do work that matters, while continuing to learn, grow and stretch myself in new ways.” When she first joined PropertyGuru, her decision was guided by a simple question: “Do you want to make an impact?” That same mindset continued to shape her career as PropertyGuru gave her opportunities to move across functions, take on broader responsibilities, and grow into new leadership roles.While she started out in Business Intelligence, her responsibilities expanded over time to include Sales Incentives before she progressed into her current role as Head of Commercial at PropertyGuru.

Each move across the business gave her a different perspective while allowing her to build new capabilities and broaden her impact. “My entire decision-making process is based on whether I see value in what I do.”

Along the way, PropertyGuru supported Ee-lin’s growth through cross-functional opportunities, open career conversations and recognition programmes such as Highflyers, giving her the confidence to continue stretching herself.

As she puts it, “Many times, we close the door prematurely because we judge ourselves through our own lens..” For Ee-lin, being ambitious means learning to keep those doors open. At PropertyGuru, she found a strong culture that empowered her to explore new possibilities, take ownership of her growth, and build a career shaped by meaningful opportunities.
