Originally from Northern Ireland, Roger studied at university in Edinburgh before gaining his professional qualifications whilst working for the Valuation Office Agency in central London.

Roger has now over 35 years’ experience in both the central London office market and the high street retail market throughout the UK and specialises in lease advisory work, rating appeals and valuations. More recently he has also recently been directly involved in finding, negotiating terms on and acquiring new offices in Central London for certain retained occupier clients.

Roger is a skilled negotiator but also has considerable experience of third party proceedings (i.e. Arbitration and Independent Expert representations) and also in acting as an Expert Witness during Lease Renewal procedures.

In addition, he is also an experienced Rating Surveyor and a member of the Rating Surveyors Association. In this role, Roger also currently acts as a Rating consultant to several other Surveying Practices in the West End.

In his spare time, Roger is an eager but frustrated golfer and is also actively involved in his local church where he can occasionally be found preaching at or leading the main Sunday morning service of worship.
