Edmondson has over 10 years experience in the role and has worked at some of the biggest property investment and development companies in the UK including St. Modwen and British Land.

Peel’s portfolio is made up of nine retail parks across the UK, with locations including Straiton, Stockport and Barnsley.
Edmondson said: “I’m very excited to be joining the Peel L&P Retail Parks team. With such a diverse UK-wide retail portfolio and range of assets, plus their legacy within the retail sector, Peel L&P is one of the most dynamic companies to work for in the retail industry.
“A key part of my new role at Peel L&P will be enabling future development and unlocking opportunities for our partners and occupiers within the retail sector. I am looking forward to working with our current and future partners to continue developing Peel L&P’s Retail Parks as retail destinations our communities love to visit and use.”
Mark Whittaker, executive director for Property Investment and Management, added: “Peel L&P Retail Parks has been leading the way since we first introduced the retail park concept to the UK over 30 years ago. At Peel L&P, we’ve established a strong and trusted track-record within the retail sector as a partner of choice for many of the UK’s biggest and best-known retail and leisure brands.
“With Bruce on board we’re ready to increase momentum and use his knowledge and expertise to continue enhancing our retail parks portfolio. We are committed to unlocking even more opportunities through our partnership approach and further establishing our Peel L&P retail parks as the leading destination for food, lifestyle and convenience offerings.”
