Avison Young has appointed Sam Pearson as an associate director in its industrial and logistics team in Birmingham.
Pearson joins Avison Young following six years at Gerald Eve, where he began his career as an assistant surveyor, before working his way up to an associate in the firm’s national industrial and logistics team.
In his new role, Pearson will be working alongside the well-established team in the Midlands, which includes David Willmer, Alex Thompson, Max Andrews and Sam Forster, while also collaborating with the wider Avison Young industrial and logistics teams.
His focus will be on developing the existing client base, targeting new assets and development opportunities across the Midlands region, ranging from multi-let to large-scale logistics sites, and supporting the strategic growth plans of the business.
Pearson said: “I’m very pleased to be joining Avison Young’s industrial and logistics team in Birmingham to further support the growth of the business and continue to enhance our profile across the Midlands region.
“It’s an exciting time for the business, both on a national and regional level, and I’m looking forward to collaborating with colleagues to capitalise on opportunities in the market during what looks set to be a resurgent 2025.”
Willmer, principal and managing director, industrial and logistics, at Avison Young UK, added: “It’s fantastic to be bringing Sam on board in Birmingham. This is a significant time for the industrial and logistics team, with a number of key projects under way and plans for continued growth in 2025 and beyond.
“Regional growth is a crucial part of our business strategy, and we look forward to continuing to build on our reputation within the Midlands market, delivering real value to our clients.”
