Advisory is Extracting and unlocking value Interpreting policy to maximise benefits for our clients Applying innovative ideas to challenge the status quo Counselling clients to achieve their goals and objectives Supporting clients critical thinking to improve the performance of their assets Simplifying complex problems and creating solutions Advisory benefits from a huge critical mass of expertise and a diversity of experience. We work across a number of key sectors including Town Centres, Local Government, Transport & Infrastructure and Housing. Our clients are delivering major projects across the UK and require our expertise and problem-solving abilities. SITE ASSEMBLY & CPO The Site Assembly & CPO team advises clients on major projects across the country. We advise scheme promoters in preparing to use CPO powers, how to implement them, budgeting/compensation estimates, negotiating with affected landowners and dealing with compensation claims. We also advise claimants who are subject to CPO powers including the drafting of objections and negotiating claims. We work across many different sectors including Transport & Infrastructure, Regeneration and Housing. Our work is varied, complex and highly skilled working with colleagues across the business and part of multi-disciplinary project teams such as land referencers, legal advisors, project managers and engineers. We work closely with wider business colleagues on a range of high profile and complex projects. Our key clients include: Transport - Network Rail, HS2, Transport for London Central Government - Homes England, NHS PS, DIO Local Authority - City of Bradford MDC, Thurrock Council, Newport City Council, LB Tower Hamlets, Harlow DC, GLA Developers - Places for People, KEH Holdings, Yoo Capital, Muse Claimants & Landowners - McDonalds, SEGRO, Lands Improvement Holdings As of September 2025, the CPO team will consist of 7 high performing fee earners. THE WIDER DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY TEAM The wider Development Advisory team is c. 35-strong and provides a range of services as follows: Town centre development and repositioning (mix public and private sector clients) Regeneration-based development & delivery advice (mainly public sector clients) AUV advice (mainly private sector clients) Site assembly & CPO (mix of public and private sector clients) Public sector development consultancy and agency Whilst the team at the moment has a slight leaning (in revenue terms) towards the public sector, the team's expertise and profile is leading to an increasing share of work from private sector clients in line with the team's business plan. Our team vision is to become "the best development advisory team in the market, working on the highest calibre projects for a range of public and private sector clients who value our varied skillsets, insight and collaborative culture". The team covers a national geography with projects across the country (including in Scotland and Wales), whilst development projects are usually mixed-use in nature and of medium to very large scale. Projects are frequently complex and invariably require cross-team support including working with other sector-specific teams at Montagu Evans, in particular living, retail, office and investment teams, planning, as well as outside consultants such as architects, engineers, cost consultants and lawyers. We operate the team through a "network approach" where we function as a single Development Advisory team, including across areas such as business development, finance, social, L&D etc, but then allow each of the five services the room to coordinate around their respective business objectives led by a Partner or Partners. In the same way each member of the team tends to allocate their time on an 80:20 principle, wherein the majority of their time will be working into discreet services (in this case the Site Assembly & CPO service), but with the flexibility to do other things to aid their own development and/or to meet the resourcing needs of the wider team. Each surveyor is allocated a line manager as well as a 2 nd Partner support (to provide another sounding board etc), and in time we are looking to ensure that everyone is allocated a mentor that supports your learning and career development. We also encourage reverse mentoring. Responsibilities MAIN DUTIES This individual will assist the team in advising public and private clients on how to achieve their aims, whilst at the same time ensuring that their strategy moves forward in both a realistic and responsible manner. They will be involved in delivering often high-profile, major mixed-use development projects from conception through to delivery. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES The scope of work will vary, however key responsibilities will include: Reporting into Partners on a project-by-project basis; Originating new fee generating instructions from target client profile Working with external consultants within the wider project team to deliver the client's objectives; Negotiation and Acquisition Communication, working closely with clients and project teams Property valuation and cost estimates Compensation Collaborating with a range of teams across the firm and taking an active role in the sector groups; Helping support, manage and mentor graduate surveyors, surveyors and senior surveyors Cross-selling Montagu Evans' range of consultancy and agency services to clients; and Promoting our activities and experience internally/externally. Qualifications DESIRED KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, EXPERIENCE & QUALIFICATION Essential: Team-player; Positive outlook; Able to listen, assimilate and act expeditiously; Strong attention to detail; High service delivery skills; Analytical; Excellent communicator, both written and verbal; Self-motivated and proactive; and Committed and organised. Own car Understanding of the CPO and Compensation processes Desirable RICS Registered Valuer Significant Microsoft Excel experience. Argus Developer
