Elisabeth joined Harrison Drury in October 2025. Elisabeth’s development experience was predominantly gained in-house at a regional house builder, a retirement homes operator, and a national strategic land promoter. She is very familiar with complex land promotion agreements, contracts subject to planning, overages, and bespoke refinance packages.

Her retail, landlord, and tenant experience was developed through acting for many high street tenants such as Co-Op, TUI, Barnardo’s, and TK Maxx. Elisabeth gained extensive experience in lease negotiations, agreements for lease, and refinance.

Outside of work you can find me…

Elisabeth loves keeping fit by going the gym, boxing, and football. She also enjoys relaxing with a cocktail!
