Evans to head
Sherwoods Communication
Date: 01/07/2008
Annette Evans is the newly-appointed Head of External Communications
for Sherwoods Independent Property Consultants, a leading international
property services company with branches in the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, UK,
France, Morocco and Switzerland.
Evans, the former Branch Manager of the company’s Ras Al Khaimah,
UAE, office, joined Sherwoods in 2001 and quickly established a reputation
for expertly advising clients on creating thriving property portfolios
through investments in France, Spain and Morocco, and thoroughly exploring
new developments in emerging markets. She has been witness to Sherwoods’
rapid growth from a modest five-staff operation to a more than 100-personnel
strong organization.
Her skills proved highly valuable during Sherwoods’ expansion phases,
where as Human Resources Manager, Evans focused on meticulous recruitment
and training of staff and enhancing standards. She also developed and
implemented training procedures and manuals to promote Sherwoods core
values to new recruits and ensure continuous staff development. Evans
initiated the opening and promotion of the Ras Al Khaimah branch after
she recognized the potential of the emirate’s emerging market.
As Head of External Communications, Evans will act as Sherwoods’
new ambassador and will enhance market awareness for her company’s
comprehensive portfolio of services. She has already initiated the deployment
of Property Advice Bureaus in prestigious establishments, which will enable
prospective clients to acquire brochures and information on Sherwoods’
services on the spot. These and other upcoming initiatives reflect Evans’
proactive and creative approach to property consultancy.
