With stricter building safety regulations, net zero obligations and shrinking profit margins piling on top of block managers’ usual duties, there’s no doubt that it’s a challenging time to work in the industry.

To discuss how we can tackle these challenges with resilience, intelligence, and optimism, Fixflo gathered nine directors and CEOs of major firms for a roundtable. They professionally filmed the session and the recording is available now.

From service pricing to the opportunities of AI, the group covered a range of topics across areas such as day-to-day practice, training and retention, and legislation.

The panel consisted of:

  • Richard Benson, Managing Director, Kinleigh Folkard & Hayward
  • Fiona Docherty, Managing Director, James Andrew Residential
  • Joaquim Fillola, CEO, Encore Estate Management
  • Nigel Glen, Non Executive Director, Emeria
  • Joe Goss, Enterprise Sales Executive, Fixflo
  • Alec Guthrie, CEO, HML Group
  • Niall McGann, Group CEO, Fexco Property Services
  • Danielle Parker, Director, IPM
  • Martin Perry, Director, West of England Estate Management
  • Nygel Scourfield, Director, Highbury Advisory

Nigel Glen said: “We gathered together leading property management CEOs and MDs to ask them what they saw as the challenges facing their companies over the next 5 years. As always they didn’t disappoint, with a wide range of thoughts, insights and ideas for solutions.”
