GBR Phoenix Beard strengthens team
GBR Phoenix Beard has further strengthened its Birmingham team with the promotion of Richard Fletcher-Brewer to an associate in its office agency team and the appointment of Andrew Christou as a building surveyor in its building consultancy division.
Fletcher-Brewer joined GBR six months before its merger with Phoenix Beard and has played a key role in securing a string of Birmingham city centre and out of town leasing transactions. Recent deals include representing Invesco Real Estate at Park Square on Birmingham Business Park in relation to a ten year lease for global insurance claims management company Cunningham Lindsey.
Andrew Christou joins GBR Phoenix Beard from Bruton Knowles and will support the company’s building surveying work for clients such as Threadneedle Property Investors and Standard Life.
Commenting on the team changes, Simon Farrant, managing director at GBR Phoenix Beard, said: “These staff announcements are critical to our on-going success. Nurturing our staff and attracting new talent to the business are at the heart of our HR strategy.
“Richard has played a major role in helping our agency team to conclude one of its most successful years ever.”
Meanwhile, Esther Armstrong has joined the firm as a client accounts manager from CBRE and Mary Richardson has been promoted to team leader of GBR Phoenix Beard’s accounts assistants.
