COMMERCIAL property consultancy Lambert Smith Hampton (LSH) has revealed the firm is in a position to double the size of its business north of the border.

Craig Maguire, who was appointed LSH’s head of operations for Scotland earlier this year, was speaking at the company’s new office launch celebration in Glasgow last night.

“We are committed to doubling the size of the business in Scotland and by investing in new premises and staff we are providing our clients and competitors with a sign of our intent to move up a gear. Everything is now firmly in place for us to strategically expand our operations in Scotland,” said Mr Maguire.

His appointment has come during a period of change for LSH in Scotland. As well as the move to a new Glasgow headquarters in Bothwell Street, the company is also relocating to larger accommodation in Edinburgh this summer, with the opening of a new office suite in Castle Street.

LSH has also recently strengthened its teams across Scotland with a number of new appointments and promotions within key departments.
