John Munday has been promoted to chief executive officer of Colliers UK, effective 3 March 2025.
Munday, who has 30 years of industry expertise, joined Colliers in 2022 as co-head of project and building consultancy following the establishment of a strategic partnership with Paragon where he was co-managing director.
In his new role, he will set the strategic direction of the UK transactional and advisory services business, which employs more than 1,000 people.
Munday will succeed Tony Horrell who has been CEO of Colliers’ UK business for the past 14 years. Horrell, who in June this year announced he was retiring, will remain with Colliers UK and Ireland as a non-executive chairman, supporting clients and business development.
Davoud Amel-Azizpour, CEO of Colliers EMEA, said: “John has an impressive track record of creating successful businesses and leading large teams that have the agility to respond to client needs and market dynamics. I look forward to seeing him imprint his vision to further enhance our UK business and extensive organisation of real estate experts.”
Munday added: “We are well-positioned to stand out from the competition. By focusing on the depth and quality of advice we offer, across a diversified service platform, we will meet the needs of owners, occupiers, and investors throughout the full life cycle of all asset classes. By investing in a diverse range of services, we will create enhanced opportunities for our people and clients. I am immensely proud to be appointed the CEO of Colliers UK and look forward to the journey ahead.”
Robert Perry, co-head of Colliers project and building consultancy (PBC), will take over sole leadership of the PBC service line as Munday steps into his new role.
