“We need to dispose of our lease – and fast!” was how John Brutnell, General Manager at global business aviation group ExecuJet (UK) Ltd summed up his instructions to McCalmont-Woods to dispose of a surplus 2,200 sq ft of office space on Level 34, One Canada Square in Canary Wharf, E14.
Working jointly with Studley, McCalmont-Woods drew up an initial marketing report setting out the leasing options available to the existing tenant and making various recommendations to ensure a speedy disposal for ExecuJet. The lease was successfully assigned to online business news provider IB Times just two months from receipt of client instructions – a feat all the more remarkable because no formal marketing was ever undertaken!
