People: Rover's return as CBRE adds to its investment team

PROPERTY consultancy firm CBRE Richard Ellis has beefed up its investment team in Glasgow by appointing Campbell Docherty as a senior director and Martyn Brown as an associate director.

The appointment marks Docherty's return to CBRE after five years as head of the investment team at GVA Grimley, having previously spent seven years with CBRE. His projects at GVA included Glasgow's Collegelands development and the purchase of Edinburgh city council's headquarters.

Brown also joins from GVA, where he spent nine years working in the "business space" team before joining Docherty's investment team in 2006.

Also in the property sector, chartered surveyors' firm Shepherd has promoted surveyors John Mackie and Steven Ferguson to associate level.

Mackie will oversee the firm's work in the North-east from its Aberdeen office, while Ferguson will be responsible for residential surveying in Dunbartonshire.
