Reporting to David Birch FRICS, Valuation Audit Director, Rebecca’s key responsibilities will include auditing of RICS Red Book valuation reports across all property sectors with an emphasis on HMOs and residential properties.
She will also provide valuation support to VAS Panel’s team of valuation auditors, dealing with queries and offering technical expertise.
From June 2021-2024, Rebecca held the role of Chartered Surveyor at Kempston-Parkes Chartered Surveyors before which she was Audit Risk & Control Consultant at both Atos and UKAR Corporate Services.
VAS Panel is part of VAS Valuation Group, which now employs over 50 people with the majority working from the business’s HQ in the heart of Middlesbrough, plus over 20 Chartered Surveyors in the Quality Control Team.
Covering January to September 2024, the company has reported an excellent year with volumes up 25% against the same period in 2023, which in itself was the best year in the company’s trading history.
David Birch said: “As the company continues its upwards trajectory we must have the right people and technology in place to continue to deliver a market-leading service for brokers, lenders and valuers.
“Rebecca has a track record and the right experience to play a pivotal role in not only maintaining valuation reporting standards but pushing them even higher, she will help us maintain our position as a centre-of-excellence in the valuation sector.”
