Philip Colman appointed to head up Investment team at Glenny

Glenny has made a high-profile senior appointment, appointing Philip Colman as a Divisional Partner in its Investment team. Philip has more than 10 years’ experience working in the London and the South East Business Space markets with a focus on the Industrial sector, having most recently transacted with The Petchey Group, Canal & River Trust, OLIM and LaSalle Investment Management, as well as a number of local authorities, charities and family trusts. Philip joins the firm from Lambert Smith Hampton, where he was an Associate Director within the Capital Markets team, having worked previously at GVA. At Glenny, Philip will be heading up the Investment team, utilising his considerable experience, contacts and market knowledge to provide clients with investment acquisition, disposal and development funding advice; supporting the firm’s existing multi-disciplinary offering. Philip Colman, Divisional Partner at Glenny, said: “Having focused my transactional activity predominantly within the London and South East markets throughout my career, joining Glenny provides me with a fantastic platform from which to harness and grow their investment offering.” John Bell, Managing Partner at Glenny, said: “Philip’s appointment to the Glenny Business Space Agency team was a no-brainer due to the seamless geographical and sector specialism fit. He will play a strategic part in the expansion of our investment offering by collaborating closely with our established occupational and development agency teams; creating pre-emptive, off-market opportunities in an increasingly competitive market place.”
