Company announces raft of new starters as it continues to grow
A commercial and residential property firm has announced a raft of new appointments as continues to grow.
Bradley Hall said over the last three months, the company has taken on an abundance of new starters and has promoted three employees as it continues to invest in the North East.
Operating in the region for 34 years, the company says it is now one of the region’s most active property agencies, having recently topped the EGI North East lettings and occupational sales ranking during the second quarter of 2022.
Bradley Hall said it topped the rankings for all three North East counties included in the report – County Durham, Northumberland and Tyne & Wear – having closed 47 deals across the region from April to June.
The firm said this increased activity was a result of the company advising on a number of high-profile transactions during the period, leading to the company continuing to invest in the region as it looks to capitalise on the resurgence of the North East property market.
Neil Hart, group managing director at Bradley Hall, said: “I’m delighted to welcome all our new starters to the team and I’m pleased to be able to offer promotions to some of our existing employees.
“As a company, we pride ourselves on looking after our own, which is why – when you compare us to our industry peers - we have a much higher-than-average percentage of senior employees who have started in junior roles and risen through the ranks, from myself to our head of marketing, operations director and many others across the business.
“However, this would never have been possible were it not for the continual hard work and dedication of our staff that has enabled us to grow in such an organic, sustainable manner and I would like to thank everyone at the company for their fantastic efforts which have helped lift us to where we are today.
“It’s a hugely exciting time and I expect the business to keep growing and keep creating opportunities across the North East as we continue to expand.”
Bradley Hall said it also has a proven track record of recruiting and upskilling graduates by helping them undertake Assessment of Professional Competence (APC) courses to qualify as chartered surveyors and providing career progression opportunities.
In fact, Group Managing Director Neil joined the company as a placement student before climbing the ladder to where he is today.
Olivia White is one of the latest recruits hoping to follow in his footsteps, having recently joined Bradley Hall’s graduate programme as a Graduate Building Surveyor after completing a degree in Building Surveying and Surveying Technology at Northumbria University.
“I’m delighted to have been offered the chance to join Bradley Hall’s graduate programme,” Olivia said.
“It’s fantastic to have joined a company that offers genuine opportunities to climb the career ladder and prides itself on promoting from within.
" I’m looking forward to my future here and seeing where it takes me.”
