Accomplishments
Lloyd Clark knows that, sometimes, bad situations can be turned into great achievements.
As managing director of property development company, Match, Mr Clark had to retain his clients’ trust after the business he previously worked for was placed in administration.
Mr Clark launched Match to manage the process of convincing investors to sign over the management rights of the projects to him. He was successful in acquiring two of the three projects under discussion.
Mr Clark said this represented a turning point in his career and the beginning of a new business era. Match created a presence in the marketplace through a design-focused approach to developments.
