“Let’s be honest about the figures here. Two children in full-time nursery in London is about £4,000 a month so you have to be earning a significant salary to just cover the cost of that, so you can see why people aren’t going back to work.”
It’s Day 4 of Madison Berkeley’s The REal Juggle campaign supported by CoStar. This campaign aims to start conversations and change the narrative for parents in terms of flexibility within the RE industry.
Each day this week we will bring you a 20-30 minute round table audio discussion featuring co – founder of Madison Berkeley Clare Coe and her colleague Jack Hechle as they speak to real estate professionals both male and female from firms like Knight Frank, British Land and Derwent. During these discussions we will hear the truthful sharing of parenting experiences alongside holding senior positions in real estate and the issues that parents in real estate face. These discussions are a must-listen for everyone in the industry regardless of gender or seniority. We hope you will share it with your community as well as add your thoughts and comments to the conversation on LinkedIn.
Today we welcome Anna Whitton Director of Corporate Affairs at Get Living and Rebecca Harper Head of Investment at Rapleys into the room.
