Ray White Commercial has appointed its first new business development executive as the firm continues to expand with more agents joining the real estate network.

James Linacre will be using his depth of knowledge and experience acquired over a decade in the real estate industry to provide support and structure to the teams, and help drive performance.

“When the opportunity came up with Ray White Commercial, it was a great network and platform for me to build a strong commercial property career in strategy and performance, which is what I wanted to do,” he said,

“I’m going to be working across the Australia and New Zealand commercial offices focusing on helping expand those office teams in terms of recruitment and growing the agents we already have.

“I’ll also be looking at helping those businesses up skill their current staff and expand the network.

“I want to help the group take advantage of all the opportunities in the commercial  space in 2022.”

Ray White Commercial head of agency operations Andrew Freeman said Linacre was the perfect fit for the role.
