Pemberton to lead Manchester office

02 Oct 2017
Lichfields is pleased to announce that Simon Pemberton has taken over office leadership responsibilities from Michael Watts in our Manchester office. Simon who joined the business four years ago has a long track record of planning successes across the North West and beyond and this will be a springboard for more. His emphasis on teamwork and putting the client first will resonate well for our team delivering projects across the region.

Michael will now focus solely on client management and hands over the reins with the office in great shape and in the midst of celebrating its 15th anniversary and following its recent move to Ship Canal House on King Street.
"Simon will carry forward the great success we have achieved in the North West and continue to grow the office and broaden our skills base further. The business sees a bright future for the Manchester office in the housing, commercial and infrastructure sectors and Simon is ideally placed to lead our team".

James Fennell, Chief Executive

"I am very pleased to be taking over from Michael and build on his many successes. We have a great planning and development team in Manchester working on many of the region's most important projects. Michael and I, and the rest of the team look forward to working with existing and new clients in the future".
