Workspace finance head joins regen specialist

Workspace’s former head of finance, Viv Frankham, has joined regeneration start-up Real as chief financial officer.

Frankham left Workspace last month, after nine years at the FTSE 250 REIT. Prior to this she spent five years at developer Londonnewcastle.

At Real she will support the business’s growth, targeting housing-led regenerations in London and the South of England.

The company was established in 2021 by chief executive Paul Nicholls, the former managing director of Wates Residential. It already has a number of large projects, including the £117m development of Hanwell Estate to provide 505 homes for Ealing Council.

Frankham said: “I am looking forward to working with the rest of the team to secure the funding necessary to not only deliver some exciting regeneration projects that are already in the pipeline, but make possible even more placemaking projects.”
