Fox said: “With its [UK Sotheby’s International Realty] unparalleled reputation in the luxury market and a steadfast commitment to excellence, I am thrilled to contribute to the continued success and growth of this exceptional brand.”
Claire Reynolds, managing partner at United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty, added: “Her [Fox’s] understanding of the prime London lettings market and her commitment to exceptional client service align perfectly with our strategy at United Kingdom Sotheby’s International Realty.”
Chestertons appoints new sales director for Mayfair office
Chestertons has confirmed the appointment of Elliot Fensom as sales director of the agency’s Mayfair office.
Fensom has worked in the estate agency sector for over 14 years, including roles at Savills before moving to Chestertons’ Knightsbridge, Belgravia & Chelsea office in 2022.
At Chestertons, Fensom took responsibility of valuing and listing clients’ properties in Knightsbridge and Chelsea where he built strong and lasting relationships.
More recently Elliot became Chestertons’ roaming sales manager covering management vacancies due to extended annual leave, sabbaticals and transitions where he excelled at integrating his own methods and techniques to cover and improve individual and office performances in many of Chestertons’ Prime and Central offices.
Leaning on his successes, particularly with his specific knowledge and experience of Prime Central London, Elliot plans to take an already successful office to new heights.
Robert Sturges, regional director for central and prime central London, commented: “With Elliot’s in-depth PCL experience and wider breadth of industry knowledge, he was an obvious choice for this significant role in a location of greatest importance to Chestertons. In partnership with Sam Fard-Manesh, who leads Chestertons’ extremely successful lettings team, we are confident that we have the strongest possible partnership that will further benefit all our current and future valued Mayfair clients.”
Fensom added: “I am incredibly excited for this opportunity to continue to build strong relationships with clients locally and to bring a bespoke, tailored and individual service. The relationship between sales and lettings will be stronger than ever. Sam and I have worked with each other in the past successfully and I know that this will continue in the years to come.”
