Commenting on the promotions, principal and managing director of Avison Young’s Manchester office, Mark Williams, said: “I am delighted to announce a significant number of promotions within the Manchester office of Avison Young which are all well-deserved and I offer my congratulations to them all.

“Following the acquisition of GVA by Avison Young in January, the combined Manchester office now numbers nearly 200, offering a wide range of market leading services to clients. These promotions demonstrate our commitment to the development and expansion of Avison Young in the UK in particular, through the personal development of our primary resource, our staff.”
