After a record-breaking financial performance and turnover of £92.5 million in 2021/2022, property consultancy Gerald Eve has announced 40 partner and associate promotions, including several in its growing Midlands office as the company reiterates its commitment to strengthening national teams.

Simon Johns, a specialist in building consultancy in the Birmingham office, has become a partner, while Andrew Matthews of the Capital Markets team has been promoted to senior associate focusing on operational real estate and long income markets within key regional centres. The promotions follow two new appointments in the Birmingham office over the last few months, with Skye Andrews joining as a senior surveyor and Sean Rooney as an associate.

The newly appointed partners and associates have demonstrated success at a range of levels and disciplines, as well as contributing to the delivery of Gerald Eve’s environmental and social targets, as outlined in the firm’s first Environmental Impact Report: the firm is set to achieve net zero in this financial year, three years ahead of its target. ED&I initiatives have also been accelerated as practical measures to improve inclusivity in the workplace are adopted.

In addition, Gerald Eve has made eight promotions within its technical and business services support teams, including its rates payment team, marketing, and HR, reflecting the development of individuals who are critical to the operations of the business and its success.

Jon Ryan-Gill, Partner and Head of the Birmingham office, commented:
“We have some of the top talent in the area in our office and these promotions are testament to their accomplishments. We work in collaboration with teams across all Gerald Eve offices to unlock best-in-class advice by data and trends, and explore what we can learn from market activity across the country.”
