MK2 Real Estate adds director

Gareth Marchment has joined the Birmingham-based property management firm from KWB, where he was head of the firm’s property and asset management team.

Prior to working at KWB, Marchment spent 15 years at Orbit Property Management.

During his career he has advised a range of clients, including Somerset Council, Joseph Rowntree Foundation, LXi and several international property funds.

At MK2, he will work alongside head of property management and fellow director Marcello Della Croce, managing the team’s £1.5bn portfolio of assets under management, as well as focussing on new business.

Marchment said: “MK2 has a market leading reputation in the property management sector. I’m pleased to be joining at an exciting time for the team, as it continues to grow and expand its presence across the UK.”

Della Croce said: “MK2’s property management team has grown from two to 25 people in eight years, with a £1.5bn portfolio of assets under management and 2,000 plus tenants across the UK.

“Gareth’s 20 years’ experience advising clients on all aspects of property management and the skills and knowledge he’s obtained over that time will be invaluable as we look to push on to our next phase of growth.”
