Our background
Vertigo was established by Mike Roberts, a chartered surveyor with over 20 years’ experience in the UK property sector.
For most of his career Mike has been with Colliers CRE and its predecessor businesses Gooch Webster and Gooch and Wagstaff, during which time Mike had a number of roles including Head of Office Agency and Development, Managing Partner/Director and Head of Strategic Consulting. Mike therefore has a wide ranging understanding of the property sector.
A rather worrying teenage propensity for bird watching was an early indication of Mike’s passion for the environment. This has been complemented over the years by an increasing understanding of the importance of place and the burning need for great design within our built environment.
In the last few years Mike has had the opportunity of focussing on the development markets and has been inspired by the challenges of sustainability. The rapid move of green issues from Arran cardigans to designer chic has been mirrored by the move from niche to main stream.
At Colliers CRE Mike established the Sustainability Action Team and raised the profile of sustainable issues across the business of sustainable development. Mike also led Colliers on to the UK Green Building Council as founding members and became a Board member of this organisation.
Mike is a Non-executive director at Lime Technology Limited, an advisory board member of the Green Building Council and remains a consultant on sustainability issues to Colliers CRE. He is also Project Director for Hab Housing, the residential developer founded by Kevin McCloud.
