Thread drift, but as an employee and shareholder, I want NATS to employ a company other than Cartus to manage the Manchester move.
I know of several cases where the process was woefully mismanaged by Cartus on the WD side - including the sale of my house which ended up costing NATS £70k (25% of the GSP), all because they did not take advice from me or the 2 surveyors about which local estate agent to use (the one we were psoposing already had a buyer who was willing to offer the same as the GSP). In the end, my house sold
17 months later, at 75% of the GSP.
However, it's probably easier, therefore for the lazy, more attractive, just to use Cartus.
