National commercial property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton (LSH) has strengthened its regional office by appointing an associate director to head its lease advisory team.

James Banks will work closely with LSH’s agency and building surveying teams to identify long-term opportunities in the South West as it continues to position itself as a ‘powerhouse’ region.

James, pictured, previously worked at global commercial real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield, where he advised a range private and corporate clients throughout the South West and London.

He said: “This is an exciting opportunity to grow a team while servicing key LSH clients. With the growth of the Severn region powerhouse, the South West has a golden opportunity to focus on its potential and we’ll be looking to see how our experts can play a major role in the development of the area.”

James will lead a Bristol-based team that provides a range of key services to the commercial property sector including lease renewal, rent review, lease re-gear and Section 18 (dilapidations) advice to both investors and occupiers in the public and private sectors. Key LSH clients include Nationwide Building Society, property investment group Mapeley, Wesleyan Assurance and developer Urban Splash.

LSH regional head of office Darren Sheward said: “There are a growing number of opportunities in the commercial property sector in the region and having James join us means we can offer an even broader range of high-quality services to both existing and potential clients.”
