Henry Adams names new head of sales in Chichester

The office, in the cathedral city of Chichester, is just a few miles along the coast from Richard’s previous Henry Adams branch at Middleton on Sea, West Sussex. He managed the Middleton on Sea office for 10 years, building it into a successful branch operating within a thriving coastal community.

Richard Longhurst, Partner at Henry Adams Chichester, said, “I was born and bred in Chichester so naturally I jumped at the opportunity to take up this pivotal role at our flagship office. Chichester is a fantastic city which I know well having grown up here.
“We have an excellent sales team already in place so I’m very much looking forward to building on that success and driving the business forward. We’ll be selling a diverse range of properties, from new build apartments to waterside properties, country village homes, and Georgian townhouses.
“I’m looking forward to getting started and getting to serve our customers, present and future, to show them just what makes Henry Adams that little bit different and a lot more effective.”
Head of Residential Sales at Henry Adams, Gareth Overton, said, “It’s brilliant to have someone of Richard’s skill and experience stepping straight into the role. Having worked closely with Richard over many years, I’ve every confidence that he will continue to grow our client base. He has always focused on the importance of customer service, resulting in Henry Adams being awarded the Platinum Award from the review site, Feefo.”
Richard lives in Nyetimber, West Sussex, with his wife and two children. He’s a proficient golfer and is Chairman of Bognor Regis Golf Club.
