Centrick strengthens its Northern presence

We’ve taken another confident step forward in our nationwide growth, expanding our Northern presence with a larger office in the heart of Manchester and welcoming Gemma Latham as Associate Director of Building & Estate Management.

The move reflects the strong momentum of our Northern portfolio and our commitment to supporting clients and residents with local expertise backed by the strength of a national team. The new office places us right where we need to be, close to key developments, partners, and communities across the region.

In early November, the team came together to officially open the new space. The launch marked more than a change of address; it signalled the next chapter of our long-term investment in the North.

Leading our Manchester team, Gemma brings over 15 years of property management experience. Her career began on the front line in customer service, before progressing through business development, operational management, and senior leadership roles. She’s known for building strong client relationships, driving efficiency, and delivering measurable results. Above all, she brings a people-first approach, combining innovation, wellbeing, and professionalism with a genuine passion for creating better living experiences.

Reflecting on her new role, Gemma said:

I’m excited to join Centrick at such a pivotal time, to lead the Building and Estate Management team in the North. With Centrick’s strong track record across the Midlands and South, my focus will be on continuing to build on that success here in the North, strengthening our local presence, growing our portfolio, and delivering the same high standard of service our clients expect.

Phil Johns, Group Managing Director at Centrick, added:

We’re delighted to welcome Gemma to Centrick at such an exciting stage of our journey. Her leadership and expertise strengthen our growing northern team and reinforce our commitment to provide best-in-class, nationwide property management. Our new Manchester office positions us right where our clients need us, with local expertise, national resources, and a continued focus on delivering exceptional results.

Together, the expanded office and Gemma’s appointment mark another step in Centrick’s ambition to deliver truly nationwide property expertise. With more growth planned and a strong team on the ground, we’re looking forward to building even deeper partnerships and continuing to raise standards across the region.
