His experience enhances the firm’s capability across mixed-use portfolios, ground rent investments and complex residential blocks, further broadening the advisory support available to funding partners.

Colin Horton, managing director at Project & Co, commented: “The last 12 months have been transformative.

“Our growth has been driven by lenders who want commercially aware valuers who understand risk, liquidity and exit strategy as much as they understand square footage.

“These promotions are about strengthening governance, not just celebrating performance.

“Funding lines need confidence that their valuation partners understand credit.

“By investing in senior leadership across risk, delivery and asset management, we are building a structure that supports sustainable growth and protects lender capital.”
