NEL appoints new Ambassador

A senior member of a commercial property agency in Wellingborough will be helping to promote Northamptonshire as the ideal place to live, work, invest and visit having been appointed as an Ambassador for the County.

 Prop-search Director, Simon Toseland joins more than 100 other business leaders, entrepreneurs and figure-heads on the Northamptonshire Enterprise Limited (NEL) Ambassador programme, to champion the county throughout the UK and abroad. The Ambassador programme was established to bring people who are passionate about the county together, to enable them to share their knowledge and expertise, and help promote Northamptonshire.

 Commenting on this prestigious appointment, Simon Toseland said: "Northamptonshire’s commercial and economic strength lies in its central location within the UK and the diversity of businesses based in the county. This mix offers businesses and investors stability, reducing the risks associated with large dominant employers and as such, Northamptonshire remains a place in which to invest and grow."

 Ambassador Manager, Julia Schumacher added: "We are delighted to welcome Simon to the group and look forward to working with him and prop-search in the future."

 "We have some very inspirational individuals within Northamptonshire who we are incredibly proud of where they live and work, and have a desire to be part of the future growth of the county. The Ambassadors really do make a difference - they are the voice of the county and it is their role to help shape the future of Northamptonshire."

 Ambassadors meet regularly and take turns to host briefings where they can pass on their area of expertise to others in a bid to promote the different industries when speaking about the county through their extensive networks. Ambassadors also act in an advisory role, supporting other businesses, assisting with local policies and strategies, as well as serving as spokespersons for the county.

 During his 25 year career within the commercial property industry, Simon has played a pivotal role in securing inward investment through new developments within the county including Crown Business Park at Rushden, Castlefields Retail Park in Wellingborough, and the Odeon cinema complex at Kettering, as well as transacting millions of sq ft of industrial/warehousing accommodation throughout Northamptonshire. Simon also chairs the Wellingborough Town Centre Partnership which has successfully secured a BID (Business Improvement District) for the town.
