Commercial real estate firm Avison Young has appointed George Todrick to its national health team as an associate director.

Todrick has experience in the healthcare sector, both early in his career at GL Hearn & Partners, and then at Savills, providing consultancy and valuation advice to banks, funds, investors, developers and housing associations.

He has worked on a range of asset classes including medical centres, dental surgeries, nursing, residential and specialist care homes, and pharmacies. He joins a team of 16 consultants and is based in London.

Iain Lock, head of health for Avison Young, said: “George will strengthen even further our service to clients across the primary and independent healthcare sectors and the financial markets that support them. Our clients are benefitting from a truly national specialist service, working across the UK from five locations.”

“The recruitment demonstrates the long-term confidence we have in the UK economy and health systems, while recognising the enormous challenges they face. Avison Young is very well positioned to help our clients negotiate the bumpy roads ahead and realise exciting opportunities.”
