Bruce
Wilson is a Partner specialising in Rating

Bruce has over thirty years’ real estate experience and specialises in forecasting, managing and mitigating occupational costs within complex corporate and operational organisations.

Extensive client-side experience includes negotiating Heathrow Airport’s rating liability, Gatwick Airport Property team leadership and accountability and management of the Tesco rating portfolio; this track record attracts requests for advice from many of the UK’s largest retail, corporate and operational ratepayers.
