Annual Surveyors Conference 2024
On Wednesday 27th November, we held our annual surveyors conference at The Pumping House in Newark, Nottinghamshire.
The conference brought together a team of professionals from across the business, including our surveyors, alongside our property management and business development teams to share best practices, discuss industry trends, and learn about the latest developments in the industry.
We had a variety of speakers, with this year’s conference focusing on the following topics:
- Professor Richard Fitton (University of Salford) – Retrofit
- Emily Ransome-Farmer (Watsons) – Cladding & Building Safety Funds
- Claire Yates (CY Training Works) – Building Client Relationships
- James Laughlin (Watsons) – Leasehold
- James Warren (Off Mains Systems) – Private Drainage
- Alison Crawford (Watsons) – Strengthening Employer Brand
- Justin Howard & Tom Wilson (Langleys) – Flat Roofing.
We would like to thank all the attendees, speakers, and organisers of the event for making this year such a successful conference! Here’s to 2025! We committed to providing its surveyors with the best possible training and development opportunities. Our annual conference is an important part of this commitment.
The conference provides surveyors with an opportunity to stay up-to-date on the latest industry trends and learn about best practices. It also provides an opportunity for surveyors to network with colleagues from across the whole business and learn from each other. That said, the conference is a valuable resource for Watsons’ surveyors and it helps to ensure that they are providing the best possible service to their clients.
