Strutt & Parker appoints director to drive prime central London growth
Strutt & Parker has appointed Alex Robinson as a director within its broker team as it looks to expand its presence in prime central London.
Robinson joins from Knight Frank, where he spent seven years working in the firm’s private office and was most recently a partner. He brings 15 years’ experience across residential and commercial property.
In his new role, Robinson will work alongside Strutt & Parker’s national network of offices and brokers within its private client team, supporting the firm’s growth ambitions in London’s high-value residential sector.
According to Robinson, the move represents a significant step in his career.
“Joining Strutt & Parker is a pivotal opportunity to be part of a business on a path of significant growth,” he said.
“I look forward to working alongside some of the best names in this industry as we expand services into key markets and introduce clients to the service-focused approach the business is known for.”
Claire Reynolds, UK head of sales at Strutt & Parker, believes Robinson’s reputation makes him a strong addition to the business.
“Alex has one of the leading reputations in our industry, renowned for his discretion, integrity and credibility in some of the city’s most complex and sensitive transactions,” she said.
“He is a brilliant fit for our business and brings the energy and client focus that complements our growth ambitions.”
The appointment follows a period of investment and change at Strutt & Parker, including a recent rebrand encompassing a new visual identity, updated marketing services and a refurbishment programme across its nationwide office network.
The firm has also been expanding its workforce, including the introduction of a hybrid broker model in London backed by shareholder BNP Paribas.
