Naylors appoints facilities management head

Newcastle-based commercial property consultancy Naylors has appointed Chris Wild as head of facilities management.

Chris joins the firm's property & facilities management team with more than 30 years' experience, having previously held property and operations management roles with Groundwork and John Lewis.

In his new role, Chris will oversee a nationwide portfolio of industrial, office, investment and retail assets, supporting clients across the UK.

Chris said: “The opportunity to get back to managing property full time, leading a team of FMs, was too good to miss and particularly for a business I knew well and respected.

“I am most looking forward to using my experience to help develop the slightly less-experienced members of the FM team and to support the property managers in their roles.

“I will also going be looking at processes and procedures with the aim of driving both efficiencies and standards to facilitate the growth we are looking for.”

Chris’ appointment forms part of Naylors’ three-year growth strategy as the consultancy continues to expand its property and facilities management offering and strengthen support for clients nationwide.

Katy Clark, partner at Naylors, added: “Property management is our biggest department and the fastest growing – Chris will play a key role in its future and we are delighted to have him onboard.”
