BNP Paribas Real Estate has expanded its central London office agency team with new recruits from Deloitte Real Estate.
Ben Thomson and Ben Ashby will specialise in tenant representation in the City.
Thomson has more than 20 years’ experience advising central London occupiers and joins as a senior director from Deloitte Real Estate, where he is currently head of City of London tenant representation. Ashby joins from the same team as an associate director.
The pair will also work with BNP PRE’s pan-European platform, Global Corporate Solutions, which was launched earlier this year.
The appointments follow Bill Peach and Jon Millard joining the BNP PRE team last month from Cushman & Wakefield.
Dan Bayley, head of London office agency at BNP PRE, said: “We have built an excellent track record in advising central London occupiers over many years, but as the market evolves we are aware that some clients are keen to work with advisers who are tenant-only specialists. Recognising this, we have recruited two experts in that field.
“Ben and Ben will dovetail with what we already do so successfully in the West End.”
