Leah Bursztynowicz
Far North Queensland
Leah joined ResortBrokers in 2024 and quickly established herself in her Far North Queensland zone, a place she and her family have called home for the last 20 years.
She has brought several multi-million dollar assets to market, and already settled three major sales, including the 46-room Castaways Resort and Spa in Mission Beach, which she sold to American timeshare giant Travel + Leisure.
Leah joined ResortBrokers with a wealth of sales and marketing experience from the tourism, hospitality and finance sectors.
“My sales approach is always focussed on the client,” says Leah. “By prioritising their goals and satisfaction, I aim to build lasting relationships and foster loyalty. I focus on cultivating strong connections and communication, ensuring that each client feels valued and supported throughout their experience.”
From 2013 to 2020, Leah worked in North Queensland tourism and hospitality, first as national sales manager for a leading adventure tour company and later as the sales, marketing and events manager for a prominent Cairns nightspot.
In 2020, with many businesses closing due to the pandemic, Leah seized the opportunity to transition into the finance and insurance sector, earning Cert IV qualifications in financial services and Tier 2 in general insurance. She then took on the role of business manager at one of Queensland's largest automotive dealerships, where she managed consumer and commercial loan applications, insurance and warranty sales for both new and used vehicles across multiple financing channels.
“In the finance industry, adherence to stringent regulations and compliance is essential,” says Leah. “In my new role as a broker, I plan to apply my finance expertise and sales skills to complement the process. This will ensure regulatory compliance while making the client experience as smooth as possible, resulting in greater satisfaction and stronger relationships.”
After nearly two decades in Cairns, Leah considers herself a local. “My journey started in my early twenties as a dive instructor, which naturally led me to Cairns,” says Leah. “Just like many visitors who fall in love with the region, I found that the incredible lifestyle here makes it too hard to leave!”
