Senior Appointments Announced at TAUK, RLB and MAPP
TAUK, Rider Levett Bucknall (RLB), and MAPP have each announced significant new appointments, expanding their leadership teams across the UK property sector.
TAUK has expanded its network with the addition of self-employed agency leader Ian Wilkinson and his team. Wilkinson, who leads Agent MXM and previously co-founded Cheshire estate agency Snowden Wilkinson, has joined the self-employed estate agency platform alongside his team. He co-founded Snowden Wilkinson in 2005 and spent almost 20 years growing the business across Stockport and the wider Cheshire market before moving to the self-employed model with Agent MXM, which operates across Greater Manchester and Cheshire. TAUK, founded in December 2020, now has more than 250 self-employed agents operating across England. The addition of Wilkinson and his team follows a series of recent appointments as TAUK continues to expand its self-employed agent model.
Rider Levett Bucknall (RLB) has appointed Helen O’Reilly as head of sales and marketing for the UK and Europe. O’Reilly joins the independent built environment consultancy from Colliers, where she served as a UK board director and led the firm’s marketing and communications function. Her appointment is the latest in a series of senior hires at RLB, including Nicole Bisson as business development partner earlier this month. RLB stated that these appointments are part of its ongoing investment in sales, marketing, and business development as it seeks to expand its presence across its core markets.
MAPP has appointed Kay Harvey as director of surveying for its central London business. Harvey joins the commercial and mixed-use property management firm from Real Estate Management (UK), where she spent the past 10 years as head of property management. She brings more than 25 years’ experience in property management and surveying, having previously held senior roles at Ashdown Phillips, Queen Mary’s University of London, Atis Real (now part of BNP Paribas Real Estate), and Chesterton. In her new role, Harvey will join MAPP’s Central London leadership team.
These appointments reflect ongoing changes and growth within the UK property sector, with implications for letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring leadership trends and business development across the industry.
