The Letting Partnership appoints Chris Mason as Director of Operations
Chris Mason has been appointed Director of Operations at The Letting Partnership, building on the business’ strong management team and positioning it for future success.
As a company director, he will help lead the business during a period of significant growth, as it meets the increased demand for outsourced client accounting and Client Money Protection services.
His role will involve supporting Managing Director Jenny Markham in delivering client accounting and Financial HealthChecks to agents, as well as working with organisations such as HMRC and Trading Standards to champion good practice in the industry.
Chris joined The Letting Partnership as Client Accounting Service Manager almost four years ago and was promoted to Operations Manager in 2019.
He brought with him extensive industry experience, having previously been employed in both the Client Accounts and Office Accounts team at Leaders Romans Group head office, where he worked for 10 years.
Chris said: “I’m very excited about helping the business to grow over the next few years and we are all looking forward to taking the company to the next level.
“We’ve built an exceptional team of specialists at The Letting Partnership, many of whom have also previously worked in the letting industry for years. This means we are uniquely placed to make agents’ jobs easier by managing their client accounting and also enables us to understand their business from the ground up.
“Letting agents don’t get into the industry to be accountants and choosing to outsource to us gives them peace of mind that client money regulations are adhered to and also frees up their time to focus on the job they love.
“I can’t wait to lead our team as they continue to deliver a crucial service to our agents and give them the knowledge that their client accounting is in safe hands.”
Jenny Markham, Managing Director at The Letting Partnership, said: “We’re so pleased to appoint Chris to Director of Operations at our award-winning and nationally-recognised business. He will be a fantastic ambassador for The Letting Partnership and we’re all looking forward to him building on our reputation for excellent service and for raising industry standards.
“We’re forecasting 50 per cent growth this year and Chris will play a pivotal role in helping our business to reach new heights.”
The Letting Partnership is the only client accounting company to be accredited by trade association ARLA Propertymark, one of the few government-approved providers for compulsory Client Money Protection (CMP) that was introduced in 2019.
