Search Office Space is delighted to hear that Avanta has launched an in-house IT support service in all of its business centres, meaning that tenants will have immediate access to help, should they encounter any problems with their technology.

Search Office Space is pleased to announce that our very own Director, Daniel Howard, has been nominated for the ‘Young Deal of the Year’ award at Norwood’s Charity Fundraiser event, the Young Norwood Property Award Dinner 2012.

Daniel, who has been working for Search Office Space for 8 years, has successfully closed many deals for the company during his time. He thrives on the satisfaction of being able to understand a client’s requirements and acquire them the most suitable office solution, according to their company’s needs. Daniel’s hard work has evidently paid off since he has been nominated for this award, and we are all very proud of him at Search Office Space!

I caught up with Daniel to ask him about the nomination, and his journey to become Director of Search Office Space.

Why do you love the property market?

I just love every aspect of property. It’s fantastic to have the opportunity to use my expertise in helping clients acquire the most suitable office solution that allows them to best run their business.

What made you want to enter the profession in the first place?

If I’m honest it was initially a stop gap after university, before I went on to pursue my chosen career in banking. However, after 3 months I found that I enjoyed the industry and aspects of my job so much that I started to view it as a career and I have never looked back.

When did you join Search Office Space and can your remember your first deal?

I joined Search Office Space in August 2004 and was working in the American Market. I was quickly able to develop a strong relationship with a medium sized company called Break Media who had their offices in Los Angeles and were looking to expand into Chicago. This was my first deal!

Who would be your dream company to find office space for?

I have been privileged to work for some amazing companies throughout my career. However, I would love to have the opportunity to assist Google and Facebook in their office search as I feel it would be both a challenging and rewarding task.

How did you work your way up to management level and what was the journey like?

I have been extremely dedicated, and have benefited from working in various teams/departments, allowing me to understand every element of the business. My love of property and our market has assisted my progress and development. I am also a tenacious character who very rarely likes to settle and I always like to be learning – both as an individual and a business.

What has been your most pivotal moment working here?

Well there have been a few, and if I had to choose one it would be the experience I have gathered working on the acquisitions agency team. It enabled me to learn about and understand every aspect of property which I feel gave me the experience to deal with all clients and their demands for fully serviced, managed or conventional office space.

What has been the most valuable contribution you have made to the company?

I have brought in unprecedented revenue over a consistent period and completed record-breaking deals within the company and industry. However, I feel that my wealth of knowledge and expertise and the ability to share this with my colleagues is invaluable.

Where would your dream office be?

Definitely within the Heron Tower on Liverpool Street in the City!

How do you think the serviced office market will evolve over the next five years?

I think the serviced/managed office market has developed hugely over the last 5-10 years and is constantly evolving. I see great things for this industry, and in uncertain times it provides clients with huge benefits to allow them to focus on their core business as well as engaging the development of how their staff work. As technology also increases and develops, the way people work will also change and this will only assist in the growth of the serviced/managed and flexible office market.

You have recently been nominated for the Norwood ‘Young Deal of the Year’ Award, what does this mean to you?

It means a lot, as it is recognition of all the hard work in 2011 and to even be nominated caps a successful year both individually and as a company!

Search Office Space is delighted to support this year’s Young Norwood Property Awards Dinner which will take place at the Hilton London Metropole on the 27^th February 2012.

The YN Property Awards are a celebration of the brightest young stars of the property world and here at Search Office Space, we believe strongly in nurturing and rewarding young talent. As a leading office broker, Search Office Space deals with many clients in all aspects of the property market. We think the awards are a fantastic opportunity to showcase achievement and acknowledge the hard work of young people within the industry.

Established in 1785 by brothers Abraham and Benjamin Goldsmid, Norwood supports families and children with learning disabilities and has become one of the UK’s largest Jewish charities. Today, the Stanmore based charity currently provides a range of over 120 specialist services. These include registered and supported housing, special education, respite care, employment, adoption, fostering and leisure services, both in the UK and internationally.

Norwood’s Royal Patron, Her Majesty the Queen, is also joined by a number celebrity supporters, such as Sir Elton John, David Furnish, Simon Cowell, Sir Philip Green, Roger Daltery, Bernie Ecclestone, Tom Conti, Theo Pathitis and Piers Morgan.

Like most charities, there are a number of ways in which the public can help. In 1993, Norwood’s now Deputy Chairman, David Ereira, formed Young Norwood (YN) which aimed to get young professionals, aged between 21 to 35, recognised in the community.

Since 2006, Young Norwood has hosted property events and fundraisers. However, 2011 was the first time that the event had incorporated an award scheme. The YN Property Awards Dinner 2011 raised £57,000 for the Norwood charity, and this year hopes to raise even more!

The 2011 winners were as follows:

• Shamik Narotam (Morgan Stanley) for Young Deal of the Year

• Shaun Simons, Ricky Blair, Michael Raibin and Richard Silver (Hatton Real Estate) for Young Agency of the Year

• Ryan Springer (Franc-Warick) for Young Property Professional of the Year

This month is the YN Property Awards Dinner 2012, which will celebrate talented young property professionals in the following categories:

Young Deal of the Year

Young Developer of the Year

Young Entrepreneur of the Year

Young Residential Professional of the Year

Young Commercial Professional of the Year

Nominees will be shortlisted and invited to the award ceremony and dinner, which can be attended by the public. Ticket sales go towards the Norwood charity.

In the past, Young Norwood events have contributed approximately £100,000 to the charity each year, so it’s a great event to get involved with, especially for those with the real estate and serviced office industries.

Furthermore, Search Office Space is proud to announce that our very own Director, Daniel Howard, has been nominated for the ‘Young Deal of the Year’ award. We will be sure to keep you up to date on any further announcements surrounding the NY Property Awa
