Based within property management company FirstPort’s eastern region, Cihan will be leading a team of Development and Property Managers from Essex to Greater London.
She joins the UK’s largest residential property manager from Hallmark Hotels, where she was Hotels General Manager in Essex for three years. Prior to this she was a multi-site manager for Premier Inn, for nine years.
Nygel Scourfield, Managing Director of Property Services for FirstPort said: “In Cihan’s previous roles delivering first class customer service by maintaining high standards with the utmost care and attention is something we are keen she helps us to continue at FirstPort. I am looking forward to seeing the fresh perspective she brings with her.”
Cihan Gokensel, Regional Manager, FirstPort concludes: “Within hotels your guests leave the hotel and perhaps you may never meet them again. Within property management, your customers are residents who stay at the development and you see them much more often. I’m looking forward to that change.”
