Expertise
David is very well connected throughout the real estate sector having spent the last 12 years in senior roles with 3 of the largest real estate businesses in the UK (GL Hearn, Strutt & Parker and BNP Paribas Real Estate).
He takes an integrated approach to development and planning. He is commercially focused and enjoys the relationships he builds with clients. His time in the industry has enabled him to develop long lasting, close partnerships with fellow professionals.
His experience of both large and smaller projects and with Plc, local authority, charitable trusts and SME developers provides a breadth and depth of experience enabling David to take a very lateral view of the work he undertakes, spotting angles which other professionals with a narrower experience often do not.
David's specialist knowledge and his emphasis on building partnerships with clients and other experts with whom he works to deliver results to clients, invariably ensures the successful delivery of viable planning schemes.
He is very active with the Greater London Authority and has established strong working relationships with senior figures across London and the Home Counties given the scale and complexity of many of the projects he has dealt with.
David has also been a participatory party to many of the institutions that represent the development industry including the RTPI, London First, Urban Land Institute and New London Architecture.
In summary, David brings to your projects and schemes:
Expertise in all aspects of town planning consultancy to both the private and public sectors.
