Managing director
Lesley plays a pivotal role in the acquisition, development and delivery of Godwin's Monogram Living £1 billion national BTR portfolio. Her main remit is the creation of the BTR investment and operational strategy across both the single and multifamily developments for the business. Working in close collaboration with internal teams and external providers, she is responsible for the performance and profitability of our single and multifamily assets while also delivering a leading customer experience across the entire proposition.
With a career spanning over 20 years, Lesley has extensive high-level expertise with both the BTR and PRS sectors, and was at the heart of shaping the UK’s Build to Rent sector as President of The UK Apartment Association (UKAA), now the Association For Rental Living (ARL). Prior to joining Godwin, she served as a Partner at Allsop LLP and CEO of Allsop Letting and Management, where she advised developers and institutional investors on the acquisition, design, build and operation of large-scale BTR portfolios. A member of the British Property Federation’s (BPF) residential board, Lesley has toured internationally studying multifamily communities and was instrumental in the concept and creation of the UKAA’s BTR Best Practice Guide launched in 2022. She was previously Chair of Soho Housing Association and held roles at Pinnacle Places, Young Group, and City Living London.
