Stanley, who spent more than five years at Knight Frank, where he held the role of regional head of development land and planning in the South West, will be based in the firm’s London office.
Stephen Wolfe, head of commercial at BNP Paribas Real Estate said: “We pride ourselves on the strength of our experts. Tom’s appointment will help us to meet increasing project demand with many in discussion or execution stage. He will bolster the exceptional track record of our development and planning teams by adding further strategic oversight and the opportunity to better meet our clients’ needs with an even more seamless service.”
Stanley added: “It is an exciting time to be joining a flourishing group of development and planning experts with a strong presence across greater London and the regions. Working alongside leaders such as Caroline [McDade], Paul [Nichols], Julian [Gaynor] and Anthony [Lee] and other members of the team who excel within their markets, my initial focus will be to deliver a new strategic direction for the business which sees us bring multi-disciplinary services together to provide clients with truly holistic advice.”
