Synopsis

Nicola Mottershaw joined Trilogie CRE in 1999 having previously worked for both Chesterton and Phoenix Beard, where she acted on behalf of large funds and institutional Landlords, managing their commercial property portfolios.

Nicola therefore brought a different perspective to CPM having historically represented Landlords rather than occupiers.

Nicola is the key contact for a number of Trilogie’s clients, responsible for the co-ordination and management of a number of portfolios. Whilst she has a broad spectrum of property experience she specialises in the acquisition of both leasehold and freehold premises, as well as undertaking professional work and overseeing the financial management of all clients portfolios.

Synopsis

Charles joined Trilogie CRE at the beginning of 2012, after 13 years spent living and working in Continental Europe. A general practice chartered surveyor with over 20 years international experience in commercial property on both occupier, investor and developer sides, Charles has worked in senior roles at several FTSE 100 and Fortune 500 companies in office, industrial, logistics, data centre and retail real estate sectors.

Prior to Trilogie CRE Charles spent 4 years at SEGRO plc, the largest provider of flexible business space in the UK and Europe, where he was responsible for operations and business development in 10 countries. Prior to that he was with GE (General Electric) for 10 years where he ultimately became head of corporate real estate for Europe, Middle East and Africa responsible for all operational property matters for the company. He also spent 4 years at Walt Disney, again on the occupier side, where he was responsible for acquiring retail, office and warehouse space across the UK and Europe as well as managing the portfolio.

He started his career as a management surveyor, responsible for a portfolio of thirty regional shopping centres across the UK as well as some offices and industrial units.  He has also worked as a retail and office agent involved in both acquisitions and disposals of owned and leased property.

Charles is responsible at Trilogie for business development and managing customer relationships, especially amongst industrial and logistics clients, where he has a deep and broad knowledge of the industry.

Michael began his career as a Bovis Management trainee.  He gained a Higher National Diploma in Construction and Management, followed by Associate Membership of the Chartered Institute of Building.  His speciality discipline during his formative years was planning engineering whose function was to programme the optimum flow and smooth process of coordinating materials, subcontractors by designing construction programmes specifically for each project.

During the late 60s / early 70s, he made a transition into property development, becoming Development Surveyor for Metropolitan Property Developments’ Southern Region in 1971.

During the property boom of the early 1970s, he saw that prospective tenant companies for property developments were victims of dismissive attitudes in the development industry which lacked an understanding of occupier needs.   He saw an opportunity to advise prospective property occupiers to help them influence the development process to their advantage by fully exploiting their importance as potential tenants through the design and negotiation process.  

His particular skills are in pulling together the components of development to the financial and operational advantage of the client company occupier.

He established the development consultancy CRCL (Commercial Relocation Consultants Limited) in 1976, and took ownership in 1978.

He has since grown CRCL until it merged and became part of Trilogie in January 2008.

Daniel started his career at CB Richard Ellis in 1994 as a development surveyor and in 2000 moved to The Montpellier Group Plc as Group Property Director.

There, he developed a greater understanding of the role of property within a company’s corporate structure. Daniel had the task of reorganising the property division and identifying non-core assets with a view to maximising their value and subsequent disposal.

Daniel joined London and Devonshire Trust Ltd, CPM’s then parent company and still a major shareholder to this day, in September 2005 and was appointed as Managing Director in February 2006.  LDT is a trading company which has controlling stakes in a range of businesses from hotels through to house-building and real estate consultancy.

After a competitive tender process Daniel’s former employer, Montpellier Group Plc, awarded the management of its operational and surplus property portfolio to CPM Consulting, who have continued to divest it of its non-core property assets and liabilities. This has gone towards assisting the companies’ strong financial recovery, and it has also now been rebranded Renew Holdings Plc.

Outside of work Daniel enjoys sailing competitively, running and spending time with his family.

Owen O’Callaghan has 25 years financial management experience in commercial and residential property development, management and investment.

Prior to joining London and Devonshire Trust Limited  he was Finance Director for Capita Symonds Real Estate division, Royal Westmoreland Barbados and the Longford Group.

Earlier in his career, Owen was Group Financial Controller for two listed property companies.  He has a BA Joint Hons in Law and History and is a Fellow of the Institute Of Chartered Accountants.
