A leading Ashby-based property consultancy has re-elected its managing partner for a third term after he oversaw its growth to a record size.

Andrew Bridge was unanimously voted to stay on as managing partner at Fisher German by his fellow partners until at least April 2028, having first been elected in 2019.

His re-election follows Fisher German's merger with the former Matthews & Goodman in 2022, and the opening of a major new office in Birmingham in late 2023, which has made Fisher German a firm of 800 employees.

Andrew is now looking to continue this success by increasing Fisher German's influence in major cities and ensuring clients receive a joined-up approach from the firm's many areas of expertise.

He said: "It's a huge honour that Fisher German's many partners saw fit to elect me again for a third term. It's a real vote of confidence in the direction the firm is going in.

"As a firm, we not only want to help our clients with one issue but to enable them to maximise the value they get from us by assisting them in all sorts of property matters.

"We now have an incredible breadth of expert knowledge across our company, from investment; lease advisory, and valuations, through to planning; sustainable energy; infrastructure consultancy; and more.

"Our clients are already reaping the benefits of this cross-section of expertise, and I am confident we can continue to grow our influence and win more instructions as I enter into my third term as managing partner."

Andrew is also focusing on Fisher German leading by example when it comes to factors such as ESG and career progression.

"Many of our clients are increasingly focused on sustainability and ensuring their supply chain meets that standard – which of course includes Fisher German," he added.

"While achieving monetary value for our clients is obviously important, we need to match our clients' values by doing all we can to work sustainably too – whether through having greener office space, partnering with charities, encouraging our colleagues to stay physically and mentally healthy, and enabling them to progress their careers as far as they wish to.

"I'm looking forward to not only leading Fisher German's growth as a company over the next few years but to growing those values beyond the bottom line too."
