Jay Williams - Director

 

020 8504 2440 - jay@william-rose.com

Jay launched william rose along with Adrian, after working closely together for over a decade. Living and growing up in the local area was instrumental in the business’s early success, and has helped nurture countless relationships – having local knowledge is key.

Having over 22 years of experience in sales and lettings, Jay is still very hands-on and believes being personally involved with clients is the most important and satisfying part of the job. He’s professional, positive and has a friendly approach and loves a game of golf when he’s not working or running around with the kids.

Jay’s local hotspot: Cycling through Epping Forest, and loves an occasional visit to the Bel-Sit Restaurant in Woodford.

 

Adrian Sinclair - Director

 

020 8504 2440 - adrian@william-rose.com

Adrian began his journey in 1995, starting as a negotiator and growing to become manager of a busy estate agency in Woodford. After running a large rental portfolio for a number of years, he moved up to managing multiple sales and lettings offices across East London & Essex.

Having grown up in the area and still living locally with his family, Adrian has in-depth knowledge of the area and felt it only right to start the william rose journey in Woodford. He is very happy to be back in Highams Park opening a new office, as it is the location where he had his first estate agency job as a young man (with hair).

He loves spending time with the family and eating out at popular local spots like One The Avenue in Highams Park or Mezze Ocakbasi in Woodford. In his downtime he likes to go on walks around Highams Park Lake and fields with Mylo.

 

Alannah Peskett - Sales Negotiator

Alannah lives locally and has worked in the property industry since leaving school. Most of her experience was gained in Woodford Green and E4 but she has also been an estate agent in the Docklands, dealing with the very different London sales market. Ensuring all clients receive the warmest and best service possible is Alannah’s main priority and what she excels at. When she is not busy showing people around properties and negotiating sales, Alannah likes to unwind by spending time with her horse Teddy and riding through Epping Forest.

Sean coordinates the sales department at both branches, helping to develop and expand the business. He cut his teeth in the industry back in 2009, over the years he has held a variety of positions, including that of a mortgage broker, senior sales negotiator and head of a regional sales-progression department. His in-depth technical knowledge is unsurpassable, having grown from working so closely with conveyancing solicitors.

His regulatory expertise was further expanded when he qualified as a Member of the National Association of Estate Agents (MNAEA), and has aspirations of one day earning a fellowship. Sean uses his eclectic knowledge and his experience to support william rose in changing the conventions of estate agency and peoples’ opinion of the industry.

Sean has strong ties in the surrounding areas. When he’s not in the office or one of the local restaurants with his other half, more-often-than-not he’s at home doing some DIY work.

He loves nothing better than starting the day with a long walk over Highams Park Lake Fields, then it’s off to the office to earn the biscuits. People love to pop into the office just to say hello because he sits in the window with puppy dog eyes.
