Savills has taken over Montagu Evans’ UK property management business.
The deal sees Savills hire a near-100-strong team lead by Andrew Walker, head of property management. Staff from Montagu Evans’ London and Edinburgh offices will move to Savills’ offices.
Montagu Evans’ property management team has clients including Redical Holdings, RivingtonHark, AEW and several local authorities, and manages a 5m sq ft shopping centre portfolio with 20 sites.
Nick Herward, head of property management at Savills, said: “By taking on Montagu Evans’ UK property management business we have a valuable opportunity to expand and augment our already market leading property management offering in the UK.
“We have identified strong synergies with our existing instructions and clients, which will help us to enhance our service further.”
Walker said: “This move not only supports our growth and expansion, but also enables us to maintain a first-class service for clients while providing a strong platform for future growth and offering new opportunities for our people to develop their careers.”
