Knight Frank has appointed Matt Davies as office head in the firm’s Henley-on-Thames office, effective from tomorrow.
After leading the office since 2018, Nick Warner has made the decision to step down from this role. He has over 30 years of experience managing offices for national estate agencies.
He remains fully committed to Knight Frank’s prime and super prime country house market and will continue to play an integral part in the business.
Davies brings extensive experience and deep market knowledge to his new role. A longstanding member of the Henley team, he has been with Knight Frank for over a decade.
As Head of Office, he will focus on growing market share, managing the team, and further strengthening the client relationships.
Davies commented: “This is an exciting next chapter for Knight Frank Henley – we have an incredible and established team who are passionate about our town and delivering the best possible service to our clients.”
Nick Warner added: “Working for Knight Frank in this high-profile role, has been a privilege and I am incredibly grateful for the unwavering support I’ve received from our valued clients, colleagues, and the exceptional Henley office team.”
Liberty Rock hires Paul Finch of Beauchamp Estates
Liberty Rock has appointed Paul Finch of Beauchamp Estates as new managing director of its real estate division.
Finch joins Liberty Rock Property, which specialises in off-market transactions, development consultancy and strategic acquisitions, having spent the past nine years working at Beauchamp Estates, initially as a senior sales negotiator, rising to director and head of new homes.
Finch has worked with private clients and has advised a range of leading developers and real estate investors at CEO level including Reuben Brothers, Caudwell, REDD Real Estate, Berkeley Homes, Amazon Property Group, Aerium and Oakmayne Properties.
He said: “The ultra-prime property sector is seeing the long-term decline in traditional high-street estate agency, replaced by dynamic wealth advisory firms like Liberty Rock and digitally driven boutique agents. Alongside this the development finance sector is undergoing a significant shift with high street banks being replaced by private family offices and individuals as the key source of real estate funding for both single and multi-unit projects.
“I have huge admiration for Scott-havard Williams and his colleagues and Liberty Rock is expanding quickly and is ideally positioned to take advantage of these changes.”
Scott-havard Williams, CEO and group director at Liberty Rock, commented: “We have been expanding rapidly and see significant growth opportunities with Paul at the helm of our real estate division.”
