CPBigwood unveils new executive structure

PROPERTY company and auctioneer CPBigwood has announced the new executive structure intended to take the business forward following its acquisition last month by national property services group Shepherd Direct.

The board is headed by chief executive officer Rory Daly and now includes Brett Williams, Bob Simonds, Ian Smallman, Ian Tullett, Brian Bentley, Jonathan Hackett and Louise Kean.

Former directors Nigel and Paul Curry have retired.

Rory Daly said: “We wish Nigel and Paul well in their retirement. They were so much part of the success of CPBigwood following the merger of Bigwood with Curry & Partners in 2011.

“Our new executive team has the skills and experience to take CPBigwood on to the next level. The financial and group support of Shepherd Direct will enable us to accelerate our growth plans.

“We hope to build on our traditional strengths in auctions and property management to grow both organically and by tactical acquisition.

“We hope to make our first announcement in early spring and we have a number of other potential acquisitions in the pipeline.”
