About Locum

Locum Consulting is Europe's first and most successful specialist destination consultancy. We provide leading-edge strategic, operational, financial and planning advice to the destination sector.

Locum works with the owners, managers and developers of destinations ranging from regions and cities through to artistic and cultural attractions, leisure parks, resorts and event and sport venues. Our clients include operators, investors, developers, funding bodies, government agencies, regional and national authorities and public-private partnerships.

Locum understands the language and the needs of private sector investors, public sector development agencies, local government and the owners and managers of individual businesses. We can ensure that destinations are developed to maximise benefits to stakeholders, whether they are private sector investors needing a commercial return, public sector agencies needing to deliver their performance targets or residents wanting a better quality of life.

Locum Added Value

Our clients are presented with specialist destination services that enable them to clarify what they want to do, where they can do it, how best to do it and how to manage it profitably. Our team of specialists are able to shape and develop the initial vision for a destination or development proposal, whilst clarifying the offer to the market and identifying those sectors at which it is aimed. We can also create a brand strategy for the offer and develop marketing proposals to promote it. Working with architects and designers, we are able to deliver detailed designs for development proposals and cost and assess potential investment capital. Locum also offers its clients specialist advice on the management of destinations and attractions and on the selection of appropriate tenants and operators.

Locum and Colliers CRE

In 2006 Locum Consulting became part of Colliers CRE, one of the UK’s top ten real estate advisory firms, providing agency, development, management, investment and professional services across a wide range of business sectors. Colliers CRE now has 700 staff, working from 14 offices across the UK, many of which work in specialist teams, such as its hotel and leisure division, Colliers Robert Barry, one of the most respected in its marketplace.

Together we offer a more comprehensive and in-depth service to places that want to become destinations and to the developers and operators of destinations. Locum provides Colliers clients with strategic management consultancy on the development of destinations and in turn Colliers are able to support Locum with detailed property planning and delivery. In short, the two companies can now provide developers of, and investors in, destinations with a range of strategic and property advice that is unrivalled in the market-place, thereby cementing the belief that any successful property development must also be a destination in its own right.
