Cushman & Wakefield’s head of West End leasing, Craig Norton, is leaving the business to join Edward Charles & Partners as an equity partner.
Norton said: “After 13 great years at Cushman & Wakefield I am lucky enough to have been presented with this opportunity to join one of the most respected independent firms in London.”
Richard Howard, C&W’s head of London leasing, said: “Our leasing team will maintain its market-leading position by doing what we have always done: putting our clients at the front and centre of everything we do.
“We are privileged to work with some of the most creative, hard-working and client-centric people in the industry, across all generations.
“While we are sorry Craig is leaving, this undoubtedly presents an opportunity for our best younger talent to step up in their careers.”
Jamie Shuttle, partner at Edward Charles & Partners, said: “As a prominent industry figure, Craig has a wealth of experience and passion for his job which we believe will bolster the company’s position as a leading, independent office agency business with involvement across the West End and central London markets.”
