Following a ‘phenomenally successful’ first year in business, Newton Abbot based commercial property specialist Charles Darrow has expanded its team with the addition of graduate trainee James Sanders (pictured).
James, who has recently returned to Devon from Australia, has almost three years post-university experience in property management and renovation.
At Charles Darrow he will initially be utilising his skills to drive the company’s social media marketing and brand development, along with assisting the directors in all aspects of the business.
In the future James will focus on initiating new business in the leisure sector, specifically involving restaurants, cafés, coffee shops and tea rooms where Charles Darrow is experiencing particularly high demand.
James’s appointment follows the sales of Cockhaven Manor in Bishopsteignton and the Riverside Inn at Bovey Tracey. These successful transactions, along with several others nearing completion, have added to the directors’ confidence in the future.
They believe that their first year’s successful trading reflects a general improvement in the commercial property market which they expect to continue. And with the increasing number of transactions they have been asked to deal with since the beginning of the year – including the disposal of a substantial Torbay investment portfolio – they felt another pair of hands was a ‘virtual necessity’.
