A leading property consultancy has made a senior appointment as it continues to grow its presence in the North West.

Alex Isles has been appointed by Fisher German as a partner in its residential development agency team and will be based across the firm’s Manchester, Knutsford and Chester offices.
He has more than 10 years’ experience working in the development industry across the North West. Alex began his career at Roger Hannah where he passed his APC, before moving to Cushman and Wakefield. He then moved on to JLL before joining the partnership at Fisher German.

Alex has been brought on board to provide a dedicated point of contact for all things residential development at Fisher German in the North West. In his role, he will hold a dedicated land and investment agency position advising on both disposal and acquisition of development land and standing residential investments.
Alex will work with Fisher German’s existing strong client base advising how to maximise their sites by drawing on an in-depth knowledge of real estate development and the residential market, tailoring strategies to each individual site while considering market conditions and client circumstances.

He said: “I am extremely pleased to join the partnership at Fisher German. The firm has an exceptional reputation within the industry and a well-established development team working right across the UK.

“The North West is chronically undersupplied for residential development land, and Fisher German has strong landowner links meaning there is significant opportunity for the firm to support with housing numbers.

“I will be looking to push forward with those opportunities, further growing our presence across the North West and ensuring that Fisher German is a competing agency, not only on the strategic side, but on the disposal of immediate land to help the region meet its housing targets.”

Luke Brafield, Partner at Fisher German, added: “It is fantastic to welcome Alex to Fisher German.

“He has a strong track record in the development industry across the North West, so brings a wealth of expertise and market knowledge to the firm that will strengthen our service offering to clients.

“There are significant opportunities as the region looks to meet housebuilding targets, and Alex is perfectly placed to support the firm in capitalising on these.”
