Landwood Group strengthens team following period of sustained growth

Leading multi-disciplinary chartered surveyor firm Landwood Group has announced strategic promotions and a new appointment to support its expanding national portfolio.

These see the firm recruit new specialist talent alongside elevating existing senior leaders to drive the next phase of the business’s growth.

Kayleigh Johnson joins Landwood as property manager from Sourced Group, where she managed a mixed portfolio of freeholds, residential and commercial tenancies, alongside sales progression and compliance.

At Landwood, she will work on the firm’s property portfolio, helping to ensure properties are managed effectively and clients receive a consistent, responsive service.

Samantha Pendlebury has been promoted to finance director following 14 years with the business. The promotion recognises the significant contribution she has made to Landwood’s ongoing success and her role in supporting its continued development.

Mark Bailey, partner and managing director at Landwood Group, said: “The Landwood business has grown because of the talent that exists within it.

“The team is a collection of seasoned pros who possess the skills required to handle the most complex instructions and we continue to recruit and promote the right people.

“We are very much looking forward to Kayleigh getting stuck in to delivery and are delighted to recognise the important contribution Sam has made to the business over the last 14 years with her promotion to finance director.”

Holly Surplice, director at Landwood Group, has stepped up to lead on receivership appointments alongside Landwood partner Helen Jude. This will see Holly take on a more active role in this area of the firm’s existing work, building on her experience and working alongside Helen on receivership matters.

Helen Jude, partner at Landwood Group, said: “As client instructions become increasingly complex, having technical firepower on the ground is what sets us apart.

“Having Holly step up alongside me to co-lead our receivership practice puts us in an exceptionally strong position.

“We are continuing to build a powerhouse team of specialist practitioners who provide an end-to-end service for assets and businesses. From initial valuation and recovery strategy to disposal via agency or auction, we integrate every discipline to optimise asset and property value for all our clients.”
