Estate agency chief bows out after 38 years

After seven years at the helm of Connells Residential, Stuart Flavell has announced his retirement and will step down from his role as chief executive next week. 

Flavell’s decision to retire will bring to a close a career of nearly 38 years in the industry and with one company.

“Stuart has been a strong leader managing the company through challenging times and market transitions.  We are grateful for his many contributions“ says Stephen Shipperley, Connells Group executive chairman.

Flavell started in estate agency in the 1970s with Shakespeare, McTurk and Graham which was acquired by Connells in 1987.  

He rose through the ranks to become chief executive of Connells Residential in 2008 where he steered the business through the turbulent times of the credit crunch. Since then he doubled the size of Mortgage Services, overseen the acquisition and development of Burchell Edwards into a profitable part of the group and led the growth of Lettings from just six branches in Kent in 2008 to a business that will have 139 outlets by the end of this year.

With Flavell’s retirement, David Plumtree, Connells Group estate agency chief executive, will take direct responsibility of Connells Residential.
