Jeremy Bates has been appointed to the McKay securities board as an independent non-executive director and member of the audit, remuneration and nomination committees.
Bates is a director at Savills, working as head of UK transactional services and worldwide UK occupier services, and has been working in the South East market for 25 years.
Nigel Aslin, a non-executive director since May 2006, will retire from the board and its committee in May 2017. He has been the chairman of the nomination committee since 2007.
Chairman Richard Grainger said: “Jeremy’s knowledge of our core South East market and his experience and involvement with a wide range of issues relevant to our business, in particular occupier services and trends both in the UK and globally, will be of considerable benefit to the group. I am very pleased that he has agreed to join us, and he will be a valuable addition to the board.”
