Redical makes two senior appointments to Merry Hill team
Redical has made two appointments to the senior leadership team at Merry Hill, following the real estate owner and operator’s recent acquisition of the West Midlands scheme.
Alistair Winning joins as leasing manager for Merry Hill, having spent the last four years as an asset manager at the scheme with Sovereign Centros. He will be responsible for driving Redical’s leasing strategy at the destination, using his hands-on experience at Merry Hill.
Joining Winning is Fraser Jefferis, who takes up the role of asset manager for Merry Hill. He joins from JLL, where he served as director of property and asset management, and previously held the position of property manager for Hammerson’s Bullring & Grand Central in Birmingham. In his new role, Jefferis will be a key component of the day-to-day management of the asset, working as part of the centre team to accelerate growth.
Mikko Syrjanen, co-founder of Redical, said: “Alistair and Fraser are exactly the calibre of people we were looking for as we establish our team at Merry Hill. Alistair’s prior involvement with the centre is a genuine asset, as he understands the market, the occupier mix and the opportunities, whilst Fraser brings a strong track record across major retail destinations in the region and beyond. Together, they give Merry Hill a strong foundation to deliver Redical’s vision for the destination.”
Merry Hill recently joined Redical’s growing portfolio of major UK retail destinations, including Victoria Leeds, The Liberty Romford, and Clayton Square in Liverpool.
