LM makes trio of promotions
Independent retail and leisure adviser LM has made a trio of promotions, with Will Hooper, Matilda Farmer, and Henry Mason all taking on new positions.
Hooper has been promoted to equity director in recognition of over a decade of service since joining LM (formerly Lunson Mitchenall) in 2012. He is an adviser to clients including NewRiver REIT, Redical, and Pradera, and has played a role in curating retail destinations in London and nationwide, securing tenants such as Aesop, APM Monaco, Byredo, Space NK and JD Sports.
Matilda Farmer has also been promoted to associate director. LM said that since joining in 2022, she has been at the forefront of shaping the future direction of the business and has established a strong presence in the market, whilst also representing LM as Co-Chair of REVO Hub. Farmer advises clients on tenant mix and destination positioning across a range of key schemes including The Glades in Bromley, Princesshay in Exeter, and Triptych Bankside in Central London.
Finally, Henry Mason has been promoted to associate director within LM’s investment team. Over the last two years, the team has completed investment transactions with a combined value exceeding £100m, delivering outcomes for LM clients across a range of acquisitions and disposals. LM said Mason has played a key role in several of these transactions, including advising on the complex Maroon and Brown portfolio sale and supporting Northdale on its recent purchases in Huddersfield and Sale.
Neil Hockin, joint managing director of LM, said: “We’re proud to promote Will, Matilda and Henry in recognition of their dedication, talent and commitment to delivering excellent service to our clients. Seeing colleagues progress through their careers within the business is testament to both their hard work and the collaborative culture that has always been at the heart of our ethos at LM. As we continue to grow and advise some of the UK’s leading retail and leisure destinations, these promotions further strengthen our ability to deliver the highest level of service and support our clients’ ambitions.”
