The new role will see him focus on consultancy projects, electrical engineering, low energy and sustainability solutions, along with technical due diligence, dilapidation, and condition and acquisition surveys.
William Johnston joins Savills as an associate. A chartered engineer specialising in heating ventilation and air conditioning design, he will be responsible for delivery of mechanical services design.

We are delighted to welcome Martin and William to the team whose collective expertise complements our existing offer to clients as we continue to expand.”
Martin added, “I am delighted to join Savills as part of the engineering and design consultancy team. Based in Glasgow I look forward to collaborating with our colleagues and clients as we deliver projects across Scotland and the UK.”
