Scottish Commercial Property Consultants FG Burnett have bolstered their Agency Department with additional appointments and promotions within the team. Lisa Cowie who has recently qualified as a Chartered Surveyor joins retail expert Richard Noble, Managing Director, in the local and national retail market. Lisa has also been heavily involved in the Food and Beverage sector providing advice to both landlord and tenants.

Lisa commented: “I’m excited to continue my journey with FG Burnett, working alongside such an experienced team, and I look forward to building on the firm’s strong presence in the retail sector.”

Adam Martin has recently joined FG Burnett as a Graduate Surveyor and is working in the industrial sector along with Jon Nesbitt, Director. Adam joins with experience in telecoms surveying and is keen to progress and make his mark in his new chosen field.

Adam added: “Having transitioned into the commercial surveying sector, it is pleasing to have the opportunity to work alongside such a wealth of expertise. I am thoroughly looking forward to beginning my journey within the industrial sector at FG Burnett.

Hollie Stevenson, Graduate Surveyor, continues to gain experience in the office sector working alongside Graeme Nisbet, Director. Hollie undertook an internship at FG Burnett while at university.

Graeme Nisbet, Director and Head of Agency commented: “These recent appointments and promotions underscore FG Burnett’s commitment to nurturing young talent and providing opportunities. Lisa Cowie’s recent qualification is well deserved, and working solely alongside Richard Noble offers a springboard for future success. It’s important to invest in youth, as they are the future of the business and bring a different dynamic to the team.”

Get in touch

AREG is the original energy transition organisation, working on behalf of members to empower the energy supply chain and champion its expertise. Please get in touch if you have any questions or would like to find out more about membership.

AREG has played an important role in the growth of Scotland’s renewable energy sector, engaging the supply chain and developing the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. However, we are only at the very beginning of the transition that AREG was established to both lead and support so there are still opportunities for companies to get into the constantly evolving renewables supply chain. We look forward to continuing our work together as renewables builds on its place as Scotland’s main source of power, and as we seek to deliver real change in the crucial areas of heat and transport.

Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce has worked closely with AREG since its formation. The recent progress in the developments of offshore wind projects by Equinor and Vattenfall are as a result of the work of the group over many years. The north-east is known as the oil and gas capital of Europe. At the Chamber, we believe the region must evolve its position to being recognised as the energy capital. Whilst hydrocarbons will continue to be essential in driving our economy for years to come, the generation of renewable resources will play an increasingly important role in providing cost-effective power, innovative development and economic growth.

The enthusiasm and dedication of the early group that would become AREG was fundamental in us choosing to launch All-Energy in Aberdeen. The first tiny show was held in 2001, and AREG’s Chairman at the time, Jeremy Cresswell, played such an active role that I often describe him in terms such as All-Energy’s ‘midwife’. All-Energy is now the UK’s largest renewable and low carbon energy exhibition and conference in terms of number of attendees, space booked, and number of exhibiting companies. As AREG became firmly established, their presence and support for the event grew spectacularly over the years. We thank them most sincerely for their invaluable input.

Vattenfall has forged a strong working relationship with AREG through the development of the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre. AREG has worked tirelessly on behalf of the North East and it can take enormous credit for the growth of sustainable energy in the region and the path it has cleared for the region to capture further investment.

Aberdeen City and Shire is emerging as a key location for renewables by successfully transferring its world-class oil and gas expertise into the sector and AREG has done much to advance this through a broad range of initiatives. It has acted as a catalyst in driving further investment in the local economy by engaging with companies, Government, public bodies and existing projects and we have been pleased to support their efforts. Scottish Enterprise will continue to engage with AREG as we increase Scotland’s use of renewable energy.
