Ms Askam joins the team from Harworth Group where she worked as asset manager in the Business Space Division dealing with property management across the north of England and the Midlands and was involved in several major developments for the Sheffield City Region (SCR) such as Gateway 36 and the Advanced Manufacturing Park.

Our Masterplan allows us to explore a range of development opportunities alongside a fast-growing airport for passengers, cargo and general aviation, few places in the UK are capable of this, which is really exciting.”
