Keppie Massie adds two
Rob Blackwood has joined the Liverpool-headquartered firm as a property management surveyor while Jessica Cross has been appointed as a tenant liaison advisor.
Blackwood arrives from G Suite Holdings, the Manchester and Hong Kong-based investment business, and has previously worked for Mason Owen. He has spent more than 20 years in the sector, managing a range of large mixed-use commercial portfolios and residential developments.
Cross joins the firm from City Residential, where she was a maintenance supervisor for four years, prior to which she worked in student property management roles in Chester and Liverpool.
The double appointment follows an increase in the number of properties under management by Keppie Massie, which also offers agency and development consultancy among its services.
Julie Ward, head of property management at Keppie Massie, said: “Our property management division has flourished in the past 12 months, with the number of client instructions and the scale of assets under management both increasing.
“Recruiting experienced talent of the calibre of Rob and Jessica gives us an excellent platform from which to build on that momentum and to continue delivering the highest level of service to our clients and their tenants.”
Keppie Massie employs more than 30 staff across offices in Manchester, London, Glasgow and its head office in Liverpool.
