London, 3 July 2024 - Real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield has appointed Stephen Miles as its new Regional Managing Partner for Yorkshire & North East. He has taken over from Keith Hardman, who has held the leadership position since 2007.
Miles, a development expert specialising in urban regeneration and mixed-use property, has been with the firm for more than 20 years. Alongside the day-to-day running of the 80-strong Yorkshire & North East team, he will continue to lead the Northern Land, Development & Planning team in a client-facing advisory role based in Leeds. He will report to Jon Leedham, Head of Cushman & Wakefield’s UK regional network.
Partner, Stephen Miles, said: “I am delighted to be given the responsibility of leading the business at a regional level. Cushman & Wakefield is a key player in the Yorkshire and North East property market, with talented specialists operating across a number of skill lines. I am keen to use the role to bring together our collective strengths to meet the challenges and opportunities facing our clients locally, to deliver their ambitions, and increase our impact across the region.”
Keith Hardman said: “I have worked closely with Stephen for the last 17 years and he is an outstanding adviser with an abundance of the qualities needed for the Regional Managing Partner role. Along with all colleagues across the region, I look forward to supporting him as he leads and grows the team, ensuring that we continue to inspire our people and deliver outstanding outcomes for clients.”
“Stephen played a leading role in pulling together and delivering the Future of Cities series last year, which outlined our vision for how Leeds, along with other major UK cities, will evolve over the next two decades.”
Hardman will continue to focus on his national role as UK Head of Development and Strategic Advisory, which forms part of the firm’s UK Specialist Markets Division, advising national and regional investors, developers, and occupiers across the public and private sectors.
