New group business ambassador for Helmsley
The York-based developer has brought Jeremy Oliver in to focus on business development opportunities, adding to its investor network, and expanding across the group’s key sectors.
Oliver has spent 35 years in business advisory and accountancy roles at Garbutt & Elliott, now known as Azets, where he worked as an advisor to SMEs, family businesses, and entrepreneurs across Yorkshire.
He retired from the role of partner five months ago, citing a wish to focus on non-accountancy projects.
Helmsley Group is currently making inroads on its Coney Street redevelopment in the centre of York, which will open up more of the city’s waterfront, reinvigorate the retail offering, and add much-needed student accommodation to the city.
Oliver said: “I’m thrilled to be joining Helmsley Group at such an exciting time and to contribute to its vision for growth and regeneration across York and the wider region.
“The business is building on 45 years of experience and a track record of success which I’m excited to become a part of and help drive Helmsley’s continued growth.”
Ed Harrowsmith, director at Helmsley Group, added: “Jeremy’s appointment comes at a pivotal time for Helmsley as we continue to grow our investor base and bring forward new opportunities across the region.
“His consultancy and extensive network will be invaluable in helping us deliver long-term value for our clients and partners.”
