Richard Walters, partner, who joined Knight Frank's Manchester office in February to head its planning team, said: "Planning is becoming more and more important, because it really unlocks the value of land. Working with land-owners and developers in conjunction with local authorities provides an appreciation of the issues and complexities on all sides. We are pleased to welcome Matt to the team handling a range of retail, residential and commercial interests in the North West."
