International real estate advisor Savills continues to strengthen its Industrial Agency team with six new hires in the Midlands, who will be based at its Birmingham office.
Andrew Jackson and Robert Rae recently joined the team as Directors. Andrew, with over 35 years of experience in industrial property, was formerly Head of the National Industrial team at Avison Young. He specialised in industrial agency and development, overseeing projects across the UK, particularly in the Midlands and South East in the Big Box logistics sector.
Robert, previously Principal and Managing Director at Avison Young, specialises in large distribution and industrial premises in the Midlands and South. He advises on development, agency, funding, investment, acquisitions, disposals, and rent reviews for industrial and office premises, as well as land, representing both tenants and landlords.
In November, Savills appointed David Tew as Director and Chris Hobday as Associate Director. In his previous role, David advised on large-scale and mid-box schemes for developers, funds, occupiers, and landowners. Chris joined with over eight years of experience in the industrial and logistics sector, focused on the Midlands. They work with clients across industrial, distribution, logistics, and open storage assets, including corporate occupiers, landowners, developers, investors, and the public sector.
Other recent joiners include Amanda Worwood as an Associate and Katie Beswick as a Chartered Surveyor who joins from Marwood Surveyors.
Toby Green, National Head of the Industrial and Logistics team at Savills, comments: “We are very pleased to welcome a number of new faces to the national team. Between them they bring a wealth of experience, expertise and energy, which will enable us to serve our clients even better both nationally and across the Midlands. We look forward to the continued success and growth of our team as we strive to provide a best-in-class service.”
Ranjit Gill, Head of the Midlands Industrial and Logistics team, adds, “We are delighted to have grown our exceptional team. Their combined expertise in the Midlands industrial and logistics market will strengthen our current offerings and ensure we continue to be the preferred choice for investors, developers, and occupiers in the region.”
