GPE has made three senior hires as part of ambitious plans to double its flexible workspace portfolio to more than 1m sq ft.
The company, which currently operates 500,000 sq ft of flex space, has recruited Felicity Roocke and Trevor Phyo from Fora and Chris Stokes from The Instant Group.
Roocke, who previously held roles as the head of design at Fora and principal at design practice Hassell, has been appointed head of workspaces – design and delivery.
Phyo, who was head of development at Fora, has been appointed as a senior development manager at GPE and Stokes has been appointed as head of customer experience for flex workspaces. Stokes worked for The Instant Group for more than 10 years and held roles as operations director and client services director. GPE also recently promoted David Korman to the role of senior flex leasing manager.
Nick Sanderson, chief financial and operating officer at GPE, said: “I am delighted to be welcoming Felicity, Chris, Trevor and Daniel to GPE. Our mission is to be the London property company that ‘owns’ experience, and their collective skills will be instrumental in delivering our best-in-class workspaces across the capital.
“With our customers’ needs constantly evolving, it is important we reflect the right changes within our team structure to ensure we hit our target of delivering more than 1m sq ft of flex space in Central London, whilst also maintaining our market leading Net Promoter Score. We look forward to welcoming all the new talent to the team at GPE.”
