Nigel Whitehurst has been appointed as partner at property consultancy Vail Williams' Gatwick branch.

He has joined from Gerald Eve, where he spent 10 years working in the Commercial Valuation team. Nigel has also worked across a range of residential properties ranging from single flats to blocks of flats for a variety of companies.

The firm are hoping Nigel's previous work, which included co-ordinating the valuation of a mixed-use portfolio in Brighton and Newhaven for a private bank, will have set him up for success with the company.

Nigel said: ”I had no hesitation in joining Vail Williams at Partner level. I see this as an incredible opportunity to help grow this progressive firm’s Valuation offering as well as using my experience to assist and guide the excellent team.

“At Vail Williams my role is to help grow the valuation side of the business through introducing new clients and work, including cross-selling to other teams where appropriate.

“I thrive in the responsibility of business development and fee generation through creating new contacts with banks, property companies or other lenders.”

“His extensive experience in working nationally and internationally as a client manager providing comprehensive valuation advice to major banking groups shows that he will have a significant role to play here.

“We are very much in the process of strategically enhancing our Valuation offering to clients as business demand in the Gatwick area, and across all the firm’s regions, continues to increase – and Nigel is joining at a perfect time.”
