Savills has appointed Emily Slupek as a director on its project management team in Oxford.

Emily is a project manager with over 20 years’ experience in the built environment and has a considerable track record in complex development projects in the science and technology sector.

Emily also engages regularly in conference panels, roundtables and thought leadership.

At Savills, Emily will lead and grow the Oxford project management team, working collaboratively with project management teams in Cambridge, London and Savills Science.
