James enjoyed an eight year career as a professional cyclist, travelling throughout the World and living and racing in France at Elite level – twice being UK National champion. After retiring, he embarked on a change of direction and believed the competitive nature of the property market would suit him well. Working for one of Manchester’s leading independent letting and property management specialists he excelled at negotiation and rose quickly to senior level.

At haus & haus, James’ believes his passion for his staff, pro – active management style, sharp eye for detail and a ‘can – do’ work ethic has resulted in both the respect and loyalty of his team.
