With significant experience in property transactions, you’ll bring practical expertise across property divestment and acquisition, due diligence, the coordination of specialist consultants and the interpretation of their advice. Strong communication and stakeholder management skills will enable you to clearly present property issues, risks and opportunities and build effective commercial relationships across a broad range of stakeholders.
