Myles O’Brien BSc (Hons) MRICS has been appointed a Director of Aitchison Raffety.
Having joined the company in 2009 in The Rating Division, Myles was promoted to Associate Director last year in recognition of his contribution to the company.  He was previously with GVA  and Jones Lang LaSalle.

Unprecedented economic turmoil in the economy is presenting UK companies with challenging and difficult management decisions and such demanding market conditions emphasise the importance in providing quality professional advice accurately and efficiently to deliver crucial rate savings for our clients whenever possible.

Since joining Aitchison Raffety I have been impressed by their professional and innovative approach across a range of property disciplines, with the backdrop of current market uncertainty this is clearly an exciting and challenging time for the firm”
