Mark and his team have supported Pret US with a number of property assignments over the last several years. I’ve always been impressed with Marks professional and personal approach, his timely response and follow up, for this reason I have worked exclusively with him on all of our property assignments. The applicant quality I have seen from RWR is notably of a consistent high quality, and subsequently we have placed a number of property professionals in Pret, several who have now stepped up to take leadership positions with the business. I would have no hesitation in recommending working with Mark and his team across a broad range of property roles, he has delivered for Pret successfully, over and over again.
