Colin Harrop joins Hardies from Sanderson Weatherall and has previously been with Gerald Eve, JLL and King Sturge.
鈥淚鈥檓 really excited about the new opportunities at Hardies,鈥� he said. 鈥淲e already have a busy agenda and I鈥檓 pressing ahead with plans to rapidly expand our team here with an ambitious recruitment programme as we help push the well-known Hardies brand throughout the north of England.鈥�
Hardies senior partner Danny McArthur said. 鈥淗aving established our Leeds office last year, we鈥檝e taken time to secure the right person to lead this office and are delighted to secure Colin鈥檚 services, who brings with him a wealth of experience of the north of England market.鈥�
Leeds is one of three new offices across the UK announced by the Scottish company last year, the other two being Belfast and London, taking its office network to 13 locations.
鈥淲e have a large volume of work coming on stream throughout the UK, including Northern Ireland, and, as such, are in the process of building our UK-wide office network to replicate the dominant presence we hold in Scotland to give us that local presence and expertise throughout the UK,鈥� Danny McArthur said.
鈥淥ur ambition, of which Colin鈥檚 appointment marks a key milestone, is that, together with sister firm Shepherd Chartered Surveyors, we have the infrastructure to offer a national surveying service, having identified a demand from clients for a single point of contact for the delivery of a comprehensive range of property advice and services throughout the UK.鈥�
