  Sandy Chatterjee MARLA

  Managing Director

  After graduating in Economics, Sandy began a career in banking and was head-hunted to run a financial services team. He subsequently turned his attention to the Docklands property market and used his financial services skills to build up a substantial property portfolio. This led to the opening of the first Franklyn James branch in Limehouse in 2004 and further branches have quickly followed.

Nicole relishes a challenge and is committed to providing a very high standard of service to all landlords and tenants. She achieves this by being highly organised and working efficiently to deadlines.

  James Bickford

  Senior Lettings Negotiator

  Raised in Chigwell, James is currently training for his ARLA lettings qualification, having started working in estate agency in 2013. Prior to this, James trained as a quantity surveyor, but he prefers his current role as it is more sociable and he gets to meet new people every day. James is a committed supporter of Arsenal FC and he plays football three times a week. He enjoys the fast paced market of the Canary Wharf area and would like to own a fast car to match - an Aston Martin would do.

  Tarkan Ahmet

  Senior Sales Negotiator

  Tarkan is fluent in Turkish and has a degree in Business Studies and a continuing interest in business and finance. He is widely travelled, once even cycling to Paris, and has plans for further globetrotting, but probably not on a bike.

For him, a daily commitment to excellent client care and communication are key to establishing outstanding business.
