Gillian Brown will become a director in the Property Management Consultancy (PMC) team in Edinburgh while Stuart Jolly and Murray Watson take up director roles in Glasgow for the Valuation and Building teams respectively.

Alison Taylor, Avison Young principal, Glasgow, said: “These key appointments are a testament to the wider strength of Avison Young’s base in Scotland. Each of the directors are specialists, highly regarded in their respective markets, and will play a pivotal role in driving the business forward.”

The appointments are three of 42 promotions that Avison Young has made across its network of UK offices.

Stuart Agnew, Avison Young principal, Edinburgh, added: “These promotions underpin the significance of the Scottish property market at Avison Young, as the region continues to offer tangible returns for investors. It is only logical that we echo that by reinforcing our senior team.”

The promotions follow the announcement earlier this year that Avison Young has welcomed more than 100 new Principals, four of which are based in Scotland.
