Savills has taken on the UK property management business of Montagu Evans.
The property management team at Montagu Evans, which is led by Andrew Walker, comprises almost 100 staff who will all transfer to Savills with immediate effect.
Montagu Evans’ property management team currently manages a shopping centre portfolio of circa 5m sq ft across 20 centres, with the majority being public sector mandates.
Nick Herward, head of property management at Savills, said: “By taking on Montagu Evans UK property management business we have a valuable opportunity to expand and augment our already market leading property management offering in the UK. We have identified strong synergies with our existing instructions and clients, which will help us to enhance our service further. The team at Montagu Evans has a wealth of experience across the industry with very well-regarded personnel that will provide additional depth to our team.”
Walker added: “This is an exciting opportunity for the team and we look forward to working with Savills, who we regard as market leaders in property management. This move not only supports our growth and expansion, but also enables us to maintain a first class service for clients while providing a strong platform for future growth and offering new opportunities for our people to develop their careers.”
