Smyth said: “Having worked for Atisreal before it became BNP PRE many years ago, I’ve watched first hand as the business has grown and reshaped itself. Coming back at a time where its offer, positioning and talent acquisition strategy is gaining huge momentum throughout the market feels right.”
He will be based in London and will support the national team, which has doubled in size over the past year.
Wiley said: “As a division, we have been working to place talent along the width and breadth of the UK. With supply lacking, strategic advisory is more important than ever before. We will not be one to rest on our laurels when it comes to providing our clients with market-leading intelligence and advisory, and bringing Paul on board, a leading consultant with an impressive roster of trade counter and occupier clients, was a no-brainer for us.”
