Just to introduce myself to you -I’m a divorcee living in Richmond, by the river, its handy for visiting the former marital home in Twickenham and the rugby.
I’ve been a big rugby follower since my prep days and obviously hope my boys will one day play for England – I’m also a Chelsea season ticket holder , I use it mainly for corporate hospitality and for entertaining members of the trade press as it’s always a popular invitation.
For the day job I work as a Senior International Director of Commercial Business for a major Global Property Corporation. I have worked for key Property agencies/companies since leaving University and have become a leading expert on the West End of London. I’m well known in the industry and frequently travel to the States and Europe working with new Retailers who wish establish a presence in the UK or Europe. Retailers have a love hate relationship with Landlords and the Property sector but in reality we are here to help grow businesses so I have developed some strong alliances and partnerships with the major players which benefit all hopefully.
I met Miss Smith at Reading University where we were both studying; we remained friends throughout the years, mainly due to work and our shared passion for the Retail industry. As we are both divorced I often see her on the weekends that I don’t have the children. I drive into town, we have a long lunch and catch up, then do our own critique of shops and their retailing proposition, thus keeping our understanding and knowledge of the High Street well up to date.
