Centrick has appointed Neelam Saihjpal as director of BTR to lead the company’s growth in the sector.
Saihjpal, who has more than 20 years’ experience in the built environment industry, has worked for the likes of Watkin Jones Construction, Fresh Student Living and CRM students.
Saihjpal said: “It’s an exciting time to join Centrick and the build to rent sector, with the demand for high quality accommodation continuing to increase. Despite the BTR market growing, demand continues to outweigh supply, so we expect to see a lot more development activity in the sector. I am looking forward to driving our strategic growth alongside the team here at Centrick.
“Centrick has been delivering solutions and services for BTR clients for many years and has successfully managed a number of BTR sites. Crucially, we’re not just advising clients, we’re operational experts at every stage, letting and managing these developments with a strong focus on community engagement.
“It is a fast-growing sector and there is a huge amount of investment going into it. We are therefore excited about what the future has in store as we take our service up to the next level.”
James Ackrill, founder of Centrick, added: “It is wonderful to welcome Neelam to our build to rent team and I know she will prove to be a major asset in driving our strategy to gain a greater foothold in the exciting build to rent sector.”
