Our partner in Wales and South West, Sarah Hazell, has been featured in Property Week. đź“°
In this feature, Sarah talks about how she joined the property industry and shares an overview of her current role here at Jones Hargreaves. "What I enjoy most is the ability to maintain hands-on involvement with project delivery, while also supporting the team’s development and helping shape the company’s long term direction,” she explains.
Sarah also takes the opportunity to share what she likes and dislikes about the industry, plus her inspirations and her thoughts on a favourite building. Sharing her proudest career moment, she said: "Both achieving MRICS during an extremely busy period and of becoming the first female Partner at Jones Hargreaves. Neither followed a straightforward path, which makes them all the more meaningful. And since then our team has grown exponentially across the UK, and plenty more female leaders and colleagues have joined the business.”
Turning to culture, Sarah shares her favourite TV series and book, plus her number one travel destination. But no spoilers here…take a look at the full story to have a read through.
Our thanks to Sarah for being such a brilliant advocate and inspiration for our team and the wider industry.
