Rebase - A Better World of Work

OUR STORY

Work. Life. Balance.

The desire for people to work in different places, coupled with widespread change in working practices, has created opportunities for businesses like yours to reconsider their workspaces. Where do you start?

Rebase provides a refined service you’d normally expect from a global firm. Our experience means we offer first class services to small and medium sized companies, from building office strategies all the way through to the completion of the transaction.

The process ended up being more technical than we expected and Rebase proactively found a way through each challenge we faced. Their business is made up of professional people providing a service you would expect from a multi-disciplined global firm. We have no hesitation in recommending them to other companies looking for a premium level service.

Rebase negotiated on our behalf throughout the acquisition process and effectively navigated roadblocks we hit during early negotiations. Despite these initial setbacks, Rebase continued to support us and ultimately sourced and acquired our new office in The Westworks. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rebase to other companies looking to re-evaluate their office strategy.

Who we are

I thrive on building relationships with new businesses and the people within them. I spent 4 years working in Hong Kong, more recently I was a Senior Director at CBRE focused on office tenants, before setting up Rebase.

My first deal remains my favourite - selling the Royal Hotel, Kirkby Lonsdale. Equally memorable was my first 100,000 sq ft deal on behalf of Spotify, London.

Having previously worked at two of the largest global real estate consultancies in London and Shanghai, Nick and I founded Rebase after we saw an opportunity to provide SME’s with specialist advice on their office spaces and needs.

I am passionate about Rebase; the team we have built and the unique service that we provide. I enjoy advising dynamic independently owned companies and being part of their office journey.

I have worked in the London office sector for over 10 years. My career started off at CBRE in the Landlord Advisory team. I quickly worked out my passion lies in advising tenants and subsequently joined the Knight Frank Tenant Rep team.

I love being able to work with a variety of different innovative businesses and enjoy building long term meaningful relationships.

I graduated from the University of Exeter in 2020 with a First in BSc Business Management with Marketing, and then joined Rebase the subsequent year. I have since achieved an MSc in Real Estate Management, and qualified as a Chartered Surveyor.

I enjoy learning about new aspects of property every day, and have worked on a range of transactions from technical leasehold acquisitions to serviced office agreements.

I qualified as a Chartered Surveyor at Avison Young in 2020, and have worked in the Central London office market over the last 6 years advising a mixture of Landlords and Tenants.

I enjoy ensuring that Tenants find the best office solution with appropriate technology to meet their strategic goals.

Over 6 years spent working in the central London office market has meant I’ve worked with clients of all shapes and sizes: from helping fast growing startups find their first office to providing strategic development advice to listed PLC’s.

I love solving client’s property problems with advice that is innovative, and always actionable. On a personal level I am particularly passionate about sustainability in real-estate and how the built environment impacts occupier experience.

I joined Rebase as an Intern in Summer 2022, and then continued to work part-time for Rebase whilst in my final year at the University of Nottingham where I studied Politics and International Relations.

I love learning about the ever-changing nature of the property industry and all the different aspects involved.

After graduating with a History degree from the University of Canterbury in New Zealand, I have spent the past 8 years in London working across different sectors such as Film and Television, and Fintech.

I enjoy learning about new industries and finding the connections between companies.

I graduated from the University of Exeter in 2023 with a First-Class BSc in Sociology and Criminology, joining Rebase as an intern in Autumn 2023. I am currently pursuing my Masters in Real Estate.

I look forward to collaborating with tenants to deliver real estate strategies tailored to their office space objectives.

Having qualified as MRICS Chartered Surveyor in 2007, I have gained invaluable experience with firms such as Deloitte Real Estate, BNP Paribas, DeVono and Thirdway Pulse. My skillset is wide-ranging and broad, covering acquisitions of conventional leasehold space, workplace consultancy, and managed office solutions.

My focus remains heavily on occupier only advice, providing a diligent and consultative approach to all my client projects. Standouts would have to be Trustpilot, The Trade Desk, Infosys, Macquarie's Green Investment Group, Next Energy Group, and Emperor Design.

After graduating with a distinction in MSc International Business Management from the University of Surrey in 2021, I have since gained valuable experience working in project management teams at BP and Harrods.

My background allows me to efficiently support the fast-paced and dynamic team at Rebase, and as PA to the Founding Directors, I ensure smooth operations and effective communication across the business.
