Sanderson Weatherall has appointed Richard Saunders as a partner in its retail agency business in the South West.
Saunders joins from Colliers in Bristol where he was head of retail agency across the South West and Wales from 2007.
The appointment comes as Sanderson Weatherall looks to beef up its presence in the region after launching a Bristol office earlier this year.
The firm has previously been focussed on the north, with offices in Leeds, Newcastle, Teeside and Manchester, as well as London.
Head of Office Aaron Treliving said: “We are delighted that Richard has joined our South West team. His impressive track record and expertise in the sector greatly strengthens our offering to clients. It’s great to have him on-board and to be able to use his wealth of experience as we move forward in our plans for growth. Since our launch, we have received a great response from the local market. This is certainly an exciting time for our South West team.”
Sanders said: “I was attracted to Sanderson Weatherall because of the strength and reputation of the brand and the integrity of the people who asked me to come on board. “This is a great opportunity for me to be in at the launch of the brand into the region.
“Sanderson Weatherall’s Bristol office is growing rapidly as a result of the strength of the relationships it has with its clients. My aim is to build great partnerships with the retail sector based on the quality and expertise of the service we provide.”
