Woodliffe widens business space expertise at Williams Gunter Hardwick

Independent Bristol-based property consultancy Williams Gunter Hardwick has appointed Mike Woodliffe as Senior Surveyor, broadening their range of Business Space expertise.

Mike has nearly 20 years’ experience in the South West property market, having worked previously with Donaldsons (now DTZ) and more recently Colliers International, acting both for major property landlords and corporate occupiers.

In particular, he has acted extensively for blue chip occupiers including Nationwide Building Society and Barclays Bank, as well as various government departments.

“Mike brings with him a great knowledge of the regional marketplace in both office and industrial space,” says Williams Gunter Hardwick partner Andrew Hardwick. “His appointment comes at a time when our client base has grown significantly, and extends what we can offer the marketplace – particularly in terms of agency, asset management and occupier consultancy. We’re delighted to have him aboard.”

Says Mike Woodliffe: “I’m really pleased to join such as well-respected and independent Bristol firm with such a strong client base and range of instructions.

“The commercial property market is showing increased resilience as the economy continues its recovery and we are seeing a marked increase in demand for commercial premises as business confidence grows – with Bristol well placed to capitalise upon the opportunities this presents.”
