Antonia Shield Email & Phone Number

After five years in the managing partner role at BPE I have recently stepped down (to free up more time to support my "neuro-divergent" family!). However, prior to that I held various leadership roles ultimately heading up the whole Property Services offer until 2019. Today, I continue to advise both regional and national clients in acquisitions/disposals/portfolio management but also on property joint venture arrangements and development opportunities involving promotion and option agreements. I have acted for a number of household names during my career, including Superdry for almost two decades assisting in their hugely successful IPO and also Pure Gym (and helped lead that team) for over a decade. Other experience includes acting for the likes of Blooms of Bressingham, Wyevale, Golden Tulip, Tiger, Soho Coffee, The Lucky Onion, which has given me a wealth of expertise in providing optimum advice and service during the evolution of any business with property assets.In the background I continue to lead, support and mentor our fantastic group of lawyers and business support team.Our core beliefs in innovation, entrepreneurial-ism and commercial focus remain an essential part of the BPE’s culture and who I am. I am proud we have less hierarchy and give our people greater autonomy than other firms, even as new recruits, and we actively encourage them to find better ways of doing things. Just as we tailor our services for our clients, so we tailor individual flexible working for every one of our team to ensure the best work-life balance possible. We are not a family business, but we allow everyone to be themselves and it feels like one and this is reflected in the personal service and commitment we give to our clients.If you would like to get in touch with me, you can call me on 07813 198010 or email me at antonia.shield@bpe.co.uk
