Case Study: GPE
Spotlight: Property
GPE is a UK property development and investment company - it mainly owns
office buildings, with a smaller amount of retail property. The company invests
in and develops central London real estate, and its property portfolio includes
ready to fit and fully managed office spaces as well as retail spaces. It is listed
on the London Stock Exchange and at 31 March 2022, Great Portland Estate’s
property portfolio was valued at circa £2.1 billion.
Our Work With GPE
EMR first began working with GPE in 2020 when they needed support in
building out their marketing team and hiring a Head of Marketing. Despite
being up against another agency, we were able to use our deep market
knowledge and understanding of the property sector to successfully fill the role.
That individual remains at GPE today and has since been promoted to
Director of Marketing.
Since then, EMR has built a long-term relationship with GPE and helped to
successfully build out their marketing team, supporting the Marketing Director
with four additional hires: three Commercial Marketing Managers and a Digital
Marketing Manager role. When working on the first Commercial Marketing
Manager hire, we were given a very strict brief and we understood the
importance to GPE of finding candidates who had existing commercial
property experience. Because our consultants only work in specific sector
verticals, we were able to conduct a very targeted market mapping and
headhunting exercise, reaching out to our little black book of property contacts
to provide a short-list for GPE. Ultimately, only candidates put forward by EMR
reached the final stage of the hiring process.
We’re proud to have helped GPE to grow and develop their marketing team.
We understand them, their culture and what they're trying to achieve. Coupled
with our niche sector experience of property marketing, we’ve become a
recruitment partner of choice to support their marketing team on their
continued journey of success.
Anisha Patel, Director of Marketing, GPE, Said:
I highly recommend working with Katie when looking for your next team member. She is an absolute pleasure to work with, shows true commitment in understanding your business and the role, and is proactive and determined to find the best candidates. Katie has placed two fantastic marketeers within my team recently which we are very grateful for, and has done so with ease and making it an enjoyable experience for all. Thank you Katie for all the help and support you have provided along the way.
