Loughborough-based specialist land development and property consultancy Mather Jamie has announced that Sam Woodhouse and Charlie Lallo have passed their Assessment of Professional Competence (APC) and are now professionally qualified Chartered Surveyors.
Sam Woodhouse joined the rural team at Mather Jamie in October 2019 after completing a Master’s degree in Rural Estate and Land Management at Harper Adams University. Charlie joined Mather Jamie in September 2020 after graduating from Sheffield Hallam University with a degree in Real Estate. Since joining the firm they have both been studying for their APC and following pathways related to their preferred specialisms.
As fully qualified chartered surveyors Sam will continue to advise landlords and liaise with tenants who are clients of the Estates Management team helping to maximise the value of assets and relations with tenants. Charlie will continue to work in the commercial property team arranging the sale, let or acquisition of commercial properties in the industrial, office, retail, land and investment markets.
Mather Jamie director, Hamish Byers is the firm’s APC trainee mentor. He said: “Both Sam and Charlie have worked incredibly hard to balance their studies with the requirement to gain practical experience. The APC is a tough process and I am delighted their hard work and determination has paid off with first time passes. As the next generation of specialists they are valued members of the team and have positively impacted our growth.”
The APC is a formal assessment, following a two year on the job training period to ensure surveyors have the professional competence required to achieve chartership. The final assessment includes a written submission, a case study and an intensive interview.
