Muse expands in the Midlands to capitalise on opportunity

We have continued our expansion in the Midlands with four new appointments.

Photographs L-R Glyn Mutton, Development Director, joins the business having previously worked for Hill Group and London Land Group.

Richard McMullen, Senior Project Manager, joins from Urban & Civic and Alex D’Angelillo, Finance Business Partner, joins us from Mercia Real Estate. Helen Spicer, will also join as a Personal Assistant from Woodbourne Group.

The expansion continues a rapid period of growth since we first launched our Midlands office in 2022. We are already leading the delivery of some of the Midlands’ most important and impactful opportunities – including affordable homes, innovation space, workspaces, leisure, and public spaces.

The £3.2bn regeneration opportunity at Arden Cross has continued to progress, including the proposed HealthTech Campus which would be delivered with the University of Warwick.

Planning consent has been granted for around 1,000 new homes at Smithgate in Wolverhampton, and a planning application has been submitted for the regeneration of Mell Square in Solihull.

ECF – our partnership with L&G and Homes England – has recently entered into a Development Agreement with West Northamptonshire Council to deliver a sustainable new neighbourhood at Greyfriars.

Habiko – our new partnership with PIC and Homes England – is also investigating potential opportunities across the Midlands region. Habiko is focussed on the delivery of affordable and sustainable new homes across the country.

The growing team will also support further growth in the East Midlands. With the establishment of the East Midlands Combined County Authority, we are already working with local partners to investigate potential opportunities.

Maggie Grogan, Managing Director – Midlands, at Muse, said:

We are full of confidence about the future of the Midlands, as a place to invest and grow. By working together with local authorities and other regional partners, we’ve made real and tangible progress in Solihull, Wolverhampton, and West Northamptonshire.”

“The expansion of our team reflects our achievements, but also the scale of future opportunity we see coming forward across the region – including in the East Midlands. We are supported by a positive and proactive public sector which wants to make things happen.

“Our delivery partners at ECF and Habiko are also convinced of the potential of this region, and together we can deliver the new homes, jobs, leisure, and public spaces our communities need.”
