Today's guest is an industry legend and here are just a few highlights from his CV:

Joined Foxtons in 1985 as one of just 20 employees

Appointed MD in 1997 (10 offices, £10m turnover)

Grew it to 17 offices and £40m turnover

Left in early 2005 to acquire Marsh & Parsons→

Sold Marsh & Parsons to LSL PLC in November 2011 for £53m

These days he work as a Non-Executive Director and advisor, partnering with founders and leadership teams on growth strategy, operational discipline, and building cultures that actually perform, not just look good on paper.

Some of the topics discussed in the episode were the Foxtons era, daily structure, recruitment, recessions, business strategy, proptech/AI, mentorship, collaboration and improving the estate agency profession.

These businesses include names such as Viewber and Nesti to name a couple.

What he doesn't know about estate agency isn't worth knowing and trust me, you won't want to miss this one as it's an absolute belter.
