Auction firm appoints COO

Bond Wolfe Auctions has appointed a chief operating officer.

Sue Randell first started in the business as an office junior in 1992.

She has been promoted from operations and marketing director to COO at the fast expanding national auction business.

She began her career within the Bond Wolfe group of companies at the age of 16 and worked her way up the residential and commercial agency team before moving into the auctions department in 1999.

She said: “I have worked with the current team at Bond Wolfe Auctions since 2007, when the auction department merged with Bigwood which was acquired in 2006.

“Together, we have built what is arguably the UK’s most successful auction business. When we launched Bond Wolfe Auctions in January 2019, it was with a record breaking and award winning team with over 300 years of combined property experience.

“I am very honoured that the board of Bond Wolfe Auctions has placed its trust in me, and I look forward to helping the business grow in 2021 and beyond.”

Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive of Bond Wolfe Auctions, said: “This was one of the easiest decisions to make and the shortest board discussion in history.

“Sue is part of the DNA of Bond Wolfe Auctions and she understands every single facet of how we work and who we are, and she shares our aspirations.”
