• Jim Remfry will join as Co-Head of Alternative Capital Markets, strengthening DTRE’s presence in this rapidly evolving market segment.
• Jim was Co-Founder and Partner of Clifton Agency and will bring in excess of £200m of sales mandates.
• Charlie Moulton will also join the Alternatives team as Associate Partner from Kimmre.
DTRE has today announced the appointment of Jim Remfry as Co-Head and Charlie Moulton as Associate Partner, marking a significant boost to DTRE’s fast-growing Alternative Capital Markets team.
In his new role, Jim will work alongside fellow Co-Head Harry Glatman to expand DTRE’s presence in this fast-growing market. They will provide advice across various sectors, including PBSA, co-living and BTR, healthcare, hospitality, retail warehousing and supermarkets.
Jim joins DTRE from Clifton Agency, where he was Co-Founder and Partner, advising UK institutions, property companies and several Local Authorities. He began his surveying career as an Investment Agent with Knight Frank and GVA in the North West, before moving to London to work with retail experts CWM for 10 years as a Partner.
Over the past five years, Jim has worked closely with retained clients across several sectors, successfully managing several high-profile department store redevelopments, strategic land acquisitions and disposals, PRS and BTR projects, and, more recently, projects in the healthcare sector. Jim’s broad experience will complement DTRE’s existing offering in the Alternative Capital Markets team.
Charlie, meanwhile, joins from Kimmre where he advised clients in the hospitality, PBSA and office sectors on the acquisition, disposal and development of properties across the UK.
Jim and Charlie are the latest additions to DTRE’s fast-growing Alternatives team, which also includes James Cook and Joe Dowley. Spanning the entirety of the UK, the team has already secured in excess of £500m of instructions – which spans over 2,200 beds in the PBSA space and over 1,000 BTR units – with £100m of investments transacted over the past 12 months. Jim will be transferring all of his existing investment mandates to DTRE, with circa £200m of sales forthcoming in the next six months to add to the teams current impressive offering.
They join DTRE following a strong and transformative year for the business. In April, DTRE announced nine new promotions, elevating the next generation of leaders through the appointment of new business heads. Within Alternative Capital Markets, this included the appointment of Harry Glatman as Co-Head and James Cook as Head of Offices.
“We’re excited to have Jim and Charlie join our Alternatives team at this pivotal time,” said David Turner, Managing Partner of DTRE. “Our unique blend of sector specialism and operational expertise allows us to create significant value for investors and developers alike. I have no doubt they will be instrumental in driving our continued growth and success.”
Jim Remfry, Partner, said: “After working with DTRE over the past couple of years on various transactions, it was an easy decision for me to join the team. I look forward to building on the fantastic work the existing team has undertaken in the past 12 months.”
“There is a great opportunity to develop and enhance DTRE’s alternatives offering. Many alternative investments are complementary to the overall logistics supply chain, and we will look to capitalise on strong market fundamentals.”
DTRE are also pleased to announce that they will continue to support The John Miles Memorial Scholarship Fund, which Jim jointly launched in conjunction with Reading Real Estate Foundation to support exemplary students in memory of John Miles, a former Partner of Jim’s at CWM. The funding provides support towards studies for the duration of the 3-year course and successful applicants will be offered mentoring and internship opportunities at DTRE.
