Redical, the real estate owner and operator launched by Mikko Syrjanen and Petteri Barman, co-founders of Aalto Invest and former co-heads of real assets and members of global Executive Committee at Man Group Plc, has made two key appointments to its senior leadership team. The company, which owns and operates Victoria Leeds, The Liberty Romford, and Clayton Square in Liverpool, has hired Rachel Bradburn as Leasing Director responsible for Victoria Leeds, and Oliver Lloyd as Leasing Director for The Liberty Romford.
Rachel Bradburn, formerly Retail Leasing Manager at Hammerson Plc where she introduced a number of new brands to the portfolio, including Coach, Polo Ralph Lauren and The Ivy, will spearhead Victoria Leeds’ leasing strategy. Her primary role will be driving the destination forward as it builds on its position as the premium prime pitch in Leeds.
Oliver Lloyd joins from Battersea Power Station, where he was Senior Leasing Manager through the development and opening year. At Redical, Oliver will deploy his experience in leasing one of London’s highest profile new mixed-use communities to evolve and elevate The Liberty Romford, expanding its tenant line-up and mix of uses.
In addition, Javeria Hussain and Daniel Tucker have joined as Asset Managers and bring to Redical extensive experience in asset management and leasing, with previous roles at Redevco and Rivington Hark respectively. Javeria and Daniel will work with Rachel and Oliver to implement strategic asset management plans that ensure Victoria Leeds and The Liberty Romford thrive for the long-term.
Commenting on the new hires, Mikko Syrjanen, co-founder of Redical, said: “We want to enhance the places we own to create dynamic and meaningful spaces for the people that use them, and to position brands at the heart of each destination. To do that, however, requires an exceptional team, and so we are delighted to welcome Rachel, Oliver, Javeria and Dan to Redical. Each brings something different, but consistent across our entire team is the same passion, drive and commitment to creating, leasing and operating vibrant, thriving urban multi-purpose destinations.”
Established in 2020, Redical is a tech-enabled owner and operator of shopping centres and urban mixed-use estates in the UK. Specialising in strategic asset management with a mission to craft multi-purpose destinations, Redical acquired The Liberty Romford and Victoria Leeds in 2022 and Clayton Square in 2021. The company is based in London’s West End, with offices on Regent Street.
