Andrew Webster

Cumming Consultancy
"I met Tom in 2013, when he joined Schroders and took up the asset management responsibility on a portfolio of properties on which my team and I had been providing Building Consultancy Services for a couple of years. Right from the outset Tom got the best out us by providing clear briefings, listening critically but respectfully to our initial advice before invariably making the right decisions on how to take forward the asset management initiative(s). Over the next decade, until my retirement from front line consultancy in 2021, the Client/Consultant relationship that Tom fostered was one of the most enjoyable and satisfying of my 40 years in business."

Fund Manager, Jersey
"I have worked with Tom for over 10 years and have been impressed by his increasing real estate market awareness and eye for opportunity. While often working in difficult market sectors, the funds he has managed and advised have consistently outperformed market benchmarks. Utilising asset management acumen, careful capital development innovation and strong core fund management principles top ESG credentials have also been provided (for example Schroder’s regional office fund as managed by Tom achieving GRESB’s top 5 star rating for 3 consecutive years). Tom also has a key understanding of the wider strategic and risk management areas of fund advisory and management work. This is supported by his working style with both internal and external advisers which is open, transparent, and collegiate."

Partner, Addleshaw Goddard
"I started working with Tom in 2016 upon the establishment of the Future Workplace Property Unit Trust at Schroders and we have worked closely together since then. First and foremost, Tom is good at his job. He is across the markets he operates in, is well connected, has a keen eye for detail and works tirelessly to deliver a successful outcome, as demonstrated by his impressive track record of adding value with challenging assets. Aside from his business acumen, Tom is a lovely guy to work with; he is demanding but always fair and he takes "team" seriously, going out of his way to make sure that everyone involved in a project that he is leading has clear instructions and a good sense of their role in the wider context of the deal."
