Management team

Simon Mantle

Simon Mantle
Associate Director of Property Management
Belgravia

I joined Grosvenor back in 1999, so I’ve worked in a number of roles across the business. I lead a team of Management Surveyors and Property Managers to give our residents a really personal, bespoke service, as well as heading up our goal to becoming carbon neutral by 2030. Out of work, you’ll find me with my three children or, when I can escape, supporting my beloved football team.

Euan Mylne

Euan Mylne
Associate Director of Property Management
Mayfair

I joined Grosvenor in 2004 and am proud to lead the Mayfair Property Management team in my capacity as Associate Director. Home is Winchester where I like to keep myself healthy and out of trouble with cycling, windsurfing, DIY projects and pottering about in the garden.

Andrew Creamer

Andrew Creamer
Head of Business Development & Landlord innovation

I oversee all the services that Grosvenor provides through our property management team. Whether that is managing large external decorations or delivering daily cleaning services, my team of experts work with our carefully selected service partners to ensure that we provide the highest caliber of service. I am passionate about looking for new ways to do things that benefit our customers, our communities, and the environment. Over my nine years at Grosvenor, I have seen our service offering evolve and improve, implementing new innovative and sustainable solutions that deliver more for our clients. This enthusiasm for new technologies often spills over into my private life where, if I’m not out on my bike or open water swimming, you will often find me tinkering with smart home solutions.

Mayfair

I grew up in sunny Yorkshire but made the move down to London after University in Newcastle– joining Grosvenor in 2016 after a number of years at other global property firms. When away from work, I enjoy socialising, travelling, and playing or following football, cricket and rugby.

Alex Chapman

Alex Chapman
Management Surveyor
Mayfair

I’ve always worked on the Mayfair estate and am currently responsible for a team of four property managers who look after its west side. Outside of work, I love music and go to a lot of gigs and festivals. I’m also a season ticket holder at Tottenham, although that seems to bring as much despair as it does happiness!

Stefan Preda

Stefan Preda
Senior Property Manager
Grosvenor Street

I look after a portfolio of commercial and retail properties, located right in the heart of Mayfair. During my time with Grosvenor, I’ve supported the delivery of five major projects, so I feel confident I can tackle most things that get thrown at me. My son takes up most of my free time, but I love to sneak in reading about new technology, finance and computer science.

Sarah Armstrong

Sarah Armstrong
Property Manager
South Molton Street

My portfolio is made up of mainly retail units and commercial offices. I love that every day is a little different, peppered with the usual responsibilities of making sure my properties are in good physical shape, are clean and tidy, and of course, up to scratch with health and safety. After a busy week at work, I really enjoy grabbing my camera and taking photos of wildlife and beautiful landscapes.

Tim Cela

Tim Cela
Property Manager
Grosvenor Street

I started with Grosvenor in January 2012, initially managing varied and mixed-use assets across Belgravia, prior to relocating to Mayfair in 2017.

One of my specialist areas is building services, following a long exposure of over 14 years in property and facilities management environments and underpinned by a mechanical engineering background.

On a personal level, we have a two-year-old boy. We are obviously new to parenting but are very much enjoying the surprisingly demanding parenting task that a child can bring.

Carlos Nunez

Carlos Nuñez
Property Manager
Duke Street

I’ve been at Grosvenor since 2014. My role varies from pretty routine building and street inspections to setting out budgets. I’m a real people person, so I find my client relationships really rewarding and am very involved in community activities. A keen traveller and avid fan of Westerns, I’ve trekked across South America and followed in the footsteps of the last journey taken by Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid.

Belgravia & Knightsbridge

I joined Grosvenor in 2014 as Assistant Management Surveyor and was promoted to Management Surveyor in 2016. There are five Property Managers in my team who manage a mixture of retail and residential customers across North and South Belgravia. I thoroughly enjoy the sustainability part of my role and would happily plant flowers and trees everywhere if I had my way.

Outside of work I enjoy playing tennis, bike rides and gardening. Although that makes me sound a lot fitter than I am!

I am responsible for the management of the portfolio with the assistance of the designated property managers.

Chris Bonner

Chris Bonner
Property Manager
Eaton Square

I like to think I have a cool, analytical mind, which helps me oversee the day-to-day; from repairs and maintenance issues to accounting queries, and everything in-between. (As well as the odd curveball to keep me on my toes.) When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me howling with laughter at my comedian friends or marching around town with my headphones blaring.

Vera Prihonska

Vera Prihonska
Senior Property Manager
Eccleston Yards

After studying Economics at home in Czechia, I made my dream move to London. I’ve been with Grosvenor since 2011 and look after a varied portfolio of commercial, residential and retail property management. I love learning about different cultures and travelling as much as I can. If I’m not doing that, you’ll find me in the gym – working out the stresses of the week at the weights or on the treadmill.

Andrew Goodfellow

Andrew Goodfellow
Property Manager
Victoria

I joined Grosvenor way back in 2007, so I’ve worked across a real breadth of management roles. I have lots of experience managing listed buildings, with a largely commercial skew to my portfolio.

Gordon Topliffe

Gordon Topliffe
Property Manager
Grosvenor Gardens

I manage the various complex demands of some large and challenging commercial properties. The most rewarding part of my role is the diverse bunch of customers.

I have worked in property management for 8 years and joined Grosvenor in November 2018. I love the diversity of the role and am proud to be part of an industry-leading company. Every day is a different challenge and I feel very at home with Grosvenor’s Ethos of Community, Development and Sustainability. Property management is a far cry from my previous role as a secondary school teacher although definitely easier!

Heidi Benningfield

Heidi Benningfield
Property Manager
Grosvenor Gardens

My portfolio is mainly in commercial buildings, which has given me lots of experience for my role as Property Manager for the Grosvenor Gardens area.

Belgravia

My background is in running luxury-serviced office buildings here in London, so I’ve relished the experience of a different side to the industry during my time with Grosvenor. When I’m not working, I love cooking up a storm and exploring the countryside with my little cockapoo, Oatie.

I love travelling and sailing whenever I have a chance.

As well as managing three caretakers I also coordinate all works relating to maintaining properties and making sure they comply with current legislation. Working closely with the surveyors for all ongoing renovations I help to liaise between contractors and stakeholders. I bring to the team experience in dealing with issues relating to the public realm and have a very good working relationship with the council.  I’m a keen cook and enjoy practising yoga at least once week. Time is precious so I try to spend as much time as I can with my family, cats and dog!

I’ve worked at Grosvenor for a long time, since 1985! Which means I’ve been responsible, at one time or another, for every part of the estate except Eaton square. My team deal with applications to carry out works and repairs, under the terms of leases and management schemes.

Coming soon

Anne Lorenzato

I receive, review and process tenants’ alterations, ensuring they’re all in line with our policies to ensure consistency across the estate.

Edward Clayton

I’ve worked in the West End property market for most of my career, so I’ve always had a soft spot for historic buildings. My main role at Grosvenor, where I’ve worked for the last nine years, is to ensure that the buildings on the Grosvenor Estate are maintained and protected. Home for me is in Surrey, where I enjoy spending time with my family. If there’s sport on – any sport – I’ll watch it!

Coming soon

Leigh Morris

I first joined Grosvenor in September 2011 as a member of the service desk responding to and resolving tenant issues across the estate. Since then, I have undertaken different roles in the property sector outside of Grosvenor and achieved further qualifications, including a masters degree in building surveying. I returned to Grosvenor in January 2020 as a Graduate Building Surveyor assisting the team with applications for alterations. Outside of work I enjoy music, travelling and pub quizzes.

I’ve worked at Grosvenor for 20 years and it’s up to me to provide computer-aided design and drawing services to the London Estate.

I’ll be the one who provides lease plans, OS mapping, space planning, presentation and planning drawings, measured surveys and area calculations. There’s nothing better than a 10-mile walk in the countryside (whatever the weather), followed by a good lunch in an old country pub.

Paul Whitcher

Paul Whitcher
Project Manager

I’ve been at Grosvenor for almost 10 years. I’m responsible for numerous small and medium-sized construction developments across the London estate. The buildings I work on often have listed status or are in conservation areas, so the works have to be really carefully managed to maintain the strict Heritage of London. I live with my family in Surrey and love nothing more than a long country walk, followed by a medicinal glass of red at my local watering hole.

Jon Adby

Jon Adby
Project Manager

I’ve got 32 years of construction experience behind me, from a site labourer all the way to a project manager. Having admired the estate since University, I gleefully accepted an opportunity to join Grosvenor back in 2003, leading a £35 million project on Eaton square. I have 4 kids and a hound who keep me very busy, but I also Iove watching football and the odd run.

As a Project Manager for the Major Works team, I’m responsible for various projects on the London estate; such as the usual maintenance and repairs, refurbishment of our private Mews and highways and refurbishments of our commercial units so they’re ready for new tenants. Beyond the office, my wife and I spend much of our time exploring London’s parks and green spaces with our beloved Maltese terrier in tow. The walking helps to justify the dinner that usually follows!
