Richard Corbett, a partner in Roger Parry & Partners has been shortlisted in the prestigious RICS Matrics Young Surveyor of the Year Awards which rewards outstanding individual achievement of young surveyors working in the UK.
The RICS (Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors) awards celebrate young surveyors, their employers, teachers and the mentors who contributed to their success. The awards also promote the surveying profession as a career of choice to current students and trainees.
Manager of the Roger Parry & Partners office in Oswestry, Richard was delighted to learn he had been shortlisted for the RICS Matrics Young Planning Surveyor of the Year award. He said, “Being shortlisted for this award is recognition in itself for all the hard work we do on behalf of our clients at Roger Parry & Partners. I appreciate it is my name going forward but I wouldn’t be able to have got this far if I didn’t have a fantastic team to support me in the business. This recognition is further proof that our clients are getting the best service possible when they come to Roger Parry & Partners.”
Richard joined Roger Parry & Partners in 2003 after graduating from Harper Adams University with a degree in Rural Enterprise and Land Management and gained his RICS qualification in 2005. In 2011 Richard became a partner in Roger Parry & Partners. He became a RICS Spokesman on rural matters in 2016.
Richard is actively involved in all agricultural and estate management matters, including valuations, BPS claims, landlord and tenant issues, compulsory purchase and compensation, farm management and rural planning.
Richard has specialised in planning consultancy and is involved in the development of numerous dairy, broiler and free range poultry units and renewable energy projects, particularly relating to wind energy. He also provides expert advice on agricultural, rural and local needs housing, and has been involved in large scale residential housing schemes.
The winner of the RICS Matrics Young Surveyor of the Year will be announced on Friday, 18 November 2016, in London at the newly developed Hilton Bankside.
