FG Burnett managing director, Angus MacCuish, said the promotions were recognition of the pair’s involvement in the overall success of the business.

Mr MacCuish said: “Both Dan and Kevin have focussed on developing their careers and sector knowledge to the advantage of our business and our clients. They have made a valuable contribution to maintaining our market leading position in the commercial property sector and I am delighted to be able to reward those efforts with their respective promotions.

“The new roles bring greater responsibilities and demonstrate we offer real career progress for those willing to grasp the opportunities that come their way.”

FG Burnett has also appointed Michelle Stevens as property manager following the recent retirement of Doug Marnoch. Michelle joins from Aberdeen solicitors Raeburn Christie Clark & Wallace and will oversee the company’s expanding portfolio of commercial and residential properties managed on behalf of landlords and proprietors.
