Muse bolsters regional ranks

The national developer has strengthened its Yorkshire & North East team with the addition of Jack Pasley as senior project manager, joining from Queensberry Real Estate.

Pasley has now joined the Leeds-based team following two years with Queensberry , where he played a key role working with public and private partners on regeneration in Nuneaton and Huddersfield, including the repurposing of a listed hotel for Kirklees Council.

Prior to his work at Queensberry, he spent seven years at Mott MacDonald as senior associate, working primarily with government agencies upgrading a diverse range of estates and prominent public buildings across the UK.

Part of Pasley’s role will be to support the delivery of Bradford City Village, a vision for 900 new affordable and build-to-rent homes, retail and leisure, business spaces and public realm as the developer and local authority look to create a sustainable residential neighbourhood in the city centre.

Bradford City Village is being brought forward by ECF, the placemaking partnership between Muse, Legal & General, and Homes England, together with Bradford Council.

Pasley added: “Muse has an industry-leading reputation for working in partnership to deliver place and regeneration across the country. I am looking forward to helping the team curate and deliver new places focused on social value, sustainability and economic growth – not least in Bradford.”
