Appointments and promotions for Nicol & Co

Nicol & Co has welcomed two new joiners and made three internal promotions ahead of what is expected to be a busy year for the Worcestershire estate agency.

Appointments include Charlotte Kerr (main pictured, right) as personnel officer, joining the company from Age UK where she was head of people.

Amber McManus (main picture, left) has started as a sales specialist in the Malvern office in her first property role. An additional sales specialist is currently being recruited for the Droitwich office.

On the promotions front, Nicol & Co has announced that Molly Maguire, formerly a valuation consultant, has become assistant sales manager in the Worcester office.

Other promotions include Eleanor Stallard, rising from valuation consultant to valuation manager in the Malvern office, and Heather Turner, formerly a sales specialist in Droitwich, and now a specialist in the New Homes team.

Matt Nicol, managing director of Nicol & Co, (pictured) which has offices in Droitwich, Malvern and Worcester, said: “We’re very pleased to have secured the services of Charlotte and Amber, who have bolstered our sales and personnel teams.

“We are also really impressed with the progress that Molly, Eleanor and Heather have made and are delighted to announce their well-deserved promotions.

“We are also now in the process of taking on another new starter to fill vacancies in our sales departments.”

Predicted boost in buyers

Matt added: “All this recruitment and staff development activity is getting Nicol & Co ready for what we predict will become a busy year in the property sector.

“With inflation rates now expected to fall and the consequent drop in mortgage interest rates, we will see the sector getting busier as people who’ve perhaps been waiting for some time to buy and sell come onto the market.

“With our expanding team and newly promoted staff, Nicol & Co will be more than ready to handle this upturn and to continue delivering the best service to our customers.”
