Ian is one of Yorkshire’s most experienced and accomplished commercial property deal makers. With a focus on identifying and unlocking development potential, Ian has built a strong track record of working closely with landowners and developers during the early stages of some of Yorkshire’s most prominent developments.
Ian works with a broad range of clients, always aiming to enhance asset value and maximise returns. His deep understanding of the market coupled with his commercial acumen allow him to swiftly identify prime opportunities that appeal to both occupiers and buyers.
Notably, he was instrumental in securing the former Eggborough Power Station site for Marshalls CDP and St Francis Group, a site with the potential for 2.25 million sq ft of industrial warehouse space.
Having joined the company in 1989, Ian became a partner in 2000 and managing director in 2017. His leadership focuses on ensuring the business continually evolves, building on its 75-year legacy. The company’s recent relocation and significant investment in a new city-centre headquarters clearly reflects his commitment to developing a highly progressive and forward-thinking commercial property firm.
