The former national sales director of Countrywide has become vice-chairman of the operating company that runs the Property Ombudsman Scheme.
Gerry Fitzjohn, who is now responsible for acquisitions at Countrywide, started as a sales negotiator with Taylors in 1974. He joined the board of Countrywide in 2000 and has also sat on the board of the POS for some time.
Bill McClintock, chairman and chief operating officer of TPO, said: “Gerry is respected both within and outside the industry.
“My workload has grown substantially since I became chairman in 2003, and with redress now compulsory for all residential estate agents in the UK it is greater still.
“Gerry will be a great support to me and will, I am sure, make an even greater contribution to raising standards in residential estate agency.”
