Rory Davis
After leaving Gordonstoun School, Scotland in the mid 1980’s and before attending University, I spent time working in the catering, farming and construction industries – I am a qualified carpenter & joiner. From 1994-98, I attended a BSc degree course in Urban Estate Management at South Bank University, where I graduated with first class honours.
My training to become a Chartered Surveyor involved a year with Capital & Counties plc and a year with CB Hillier Parker in the West End professional department working mainly on the Crown and BP Estates in Mayfair. Following qualification as a Chartered Surveyor I spent the next 10 years or so working as a Fund Manager with CB Richard Ellis Investors, where I was responsible for several pension fund portfolios each with values in excess of £100m. I completed the Investment Management Certificate to become an FSA approved person in 2002.
This was all in preparation for joining Trevor Osborne in December 2009, someone known to me for many years through my late father John Davis who was Trevor’s solicitor since the beginning of his career and throughout the ‘Speyhawk Years’.
