"Our recruitment policy offers fresh graduates with a great potential to grow and become part of a market leading team in the Czech real estate industry," adds Hallett.

She likes to spend her leisure time salsa dancing.

Ivana Roudná and Vít Svoboda also joined the team a short while ago. Lichtensteinová replaces Marta Kotrbáčkova who goes on maternity leave in the beginning of August.

Pavel Skřivánek is a new addition to the office team. He will focus on office leasing. Skřivánek has graduated from the University of Economics in Prague. He is currently completing a post-graduate course at the Agricultural University, majoring in marketing. His hobbies include skiing, biking, and swimming.

Daniela Nováková is joining the management team as marketing co-ordinator. She becomes a member of the on-site team which is managing TESCO shopping centres. Her previous experience includes marketing expertise with LG Electronics CZ and MarexTrade. Daniela speaks English; her hobbies include skiing and tennis.

Petr Brabec's experience will also enrich the management team as he becomes its nineteenth member. Brabec comes to C&W/H&B after three years of practical experience at the ABL security agency. He will be responsible for the management of properties throughout the Czech Republic. Brabec speaks English and likes diving and photography.

"I am glad to see new people joining us to help strengthen all the market segments. We have hand-picked our new colleagues from a large number of candidates. Each individual brings a different perspective to the team and it is this wider perspective that we seek to harness as a firm. I am looking forward to welcoming further new faces by the year end," says Jonathan Hallett.

C&W/H&B regularly receives awards for its personnel policy and places great emphasis on employee development. This year the firm has secured a place in the "100 Best Companies to Work For" ranking. The ranking is organised by the UK newspaper "The Sunday Times", and C&W/H&B has been included for the second consecutive year. Scores in the ranking are calculated based on a survey (using questionnaires) amongst randomly selected employees from different sectors.
