CBRE hires office agency surveyor

CBRE in Manchester has appointed Jonathan Cook within its office agency team.

Cook joined as surveyor from the Co-operative Group where he was graduate portfolio manager.

In his position at CBRE, cook will assist the Manchester team with the disposal and acquisition of offices, working with retained clients such as Bruntwood, Orbit, Carlton House Group and F&C REIT.

The appointment follows the transfer of director Mark Worthington from Liverpool to CBRE's Manchester office earlier this year, and the departure of director Alex Russell to Property Alliance Group and senior surveyor Michelle Rothwell to Capital & Centric.

John Ogden, head of CBRE's North West business and its office agency division, said: "Jonathan joins our busy office agency team as we approach the end of another successful year of significant deals and major instructions. The North West business has expanded across multiple service lines this year with 12 new members of staff joining our Manchester and Liverpool offices since January as we further strengthen our leading position within the region."
