Adam Chapman has been promoted to an associate within the Automotive and Roadside team, Karen Bode to Credit Control associate, Tom Bourton to an associate within the office agency team and John Withers to a Rating associate.

Adam Chapman specialises in the motorway service areas (MSA) sector and has recently been responsible for providing valuation and strategy advice to the Government in respect of 35 state-owned MSAs.

"Having an outstanding team, with individuals like John Withers, Karen Bode, Tom Bourton and Adam Chapman on board, is key to our continued growth. Each of our new associates brings a range of skills and expertise to the company and we are pleased to be able to recognise their on-going commitment, whilst also investing in the future of GVA."
