Commercial property consultancy Knight Frank has announced promotions for two of its team in the Bristol office.
Joanna Crofts, the Head of its Property Asset Management for South West and South Wales, has been promoted from associate to partner, while Emma Cowlrick is promoted to associate in the Valuations team.
Joanna joined Knight Frank as a graduate in 2004, and in 2014 joined the PAM team, which manages key industrial, office and retail buildings across the South West as well as across South Wales on behalf of landlords. She became head of the team in 2018.
Knight Frank’s Property Asset Management (PAM) department provides a range of management services for landlords, including managing rents and arrears, service charges, facilities management and tenant liaison. Some of the high profile properties Knight Frank manage in the South West include Castlemead, One Glass Wharf, One Castlepark and 1 Victoria Street as well Central Park, Avonmouth, the 268 acre warehouse and Distribution Park, and Abbeywood Retail Park, Bristol.
Joanna said: “I am delighted to receive this recognition. Recent conditions across the country, from storms in the early part of the year to the current coronavirus lockdown, provide very real challenges to managing commercial property and we are proud that we have continued to maintain an excellent service throughout.”
Emma Cowlrick joined Knight Frank’s Valuation team in 2019 and provides formal valuations of commercial property for a range of clients including financial institutions, lenders, private individuals, funds, property companies and the public sector.
Steve Oades, head of the Bristol office of Knight Frank said: “Our partnership model allows us to maintain sharp focus on two things – our people and our clients- which we believe has enormous value, especially during times like these. It gives me great pleasure therefore to celebrate these fantastic people for their contributions.
“These promotions recognise the dedication, dynamism and hard work of Joanna and Emma. I wish them huge congratulations.”
