Emma has been with Lancastrian Estates for 7 years and has worked within the local property sector for more than 20 years. Her passion is photography and so naturally she is our Photographer in residence and our Marketing Expert. Emma believes in the uniqueness of each of our listings and makes sure the marketing expresses those unique selling points through images, 3D virtual tours, floorplans, and words.
Outside of work she enjoys expanding her knowledge last year completing an Open University course in photography. Emma also holds various voluntary positions within her local church and school communities and enjoys charity fund raising within both. She is married and Mum to two boys.
Operations Manager
My working career began way back for Santander, or as it was known back then, Abbey National. After learning about finance in the banking hall, I moved on to Leeds Building Society to study for my financial Qualifications, passing CeMAP and becoming a mortgage advisor.
During the financial crash in 2007/2008, as Northern Rock was ceasing to trade, I was given the opportunity to come to work with my uncle, David Robinson, at Lancastrian Estates (known at the time as Cumbrian Properties). And so, my career with Lancastrian began. Since then, I have done every job possible, from tea duty, to valuing property, and now leading the business as we transition in to a new, modern, exciting era for the business.
Outside of work I am a husband and father, helping to bring up my 3 children to help them grow and enjoy life as much as they, and we can. I am also a massive football fan, and although my better playing days are behind me, I do still try to keep playing. When not playing I am a big supporter of Man United, but more importantly, our fantastic local club, Morecambe Football Club.

This is the 2nd time I have used Lancastrian Estates to sell a property and would 100% recommend. I felt well looked after from the get go when getting the house valued through to completion. Thank you again

Having dealt with Matthew on the residential side previously it was just as easy dealing with him again on the commercial side. Matthew was very professional, attentive and pro active. Having gone through figures, yield and return on investment numerous times we found ourselves jumping on a great opportunity located on Morecambe sea front. If you have a commercial investment or land I would 100% recommend Matthew at Lancastrian Estates.

Fantastic experience purchasing a property listed with Lancastrian Estates. Managed to squeeze me in for a same day viewing. Which worked out for all parties as I made an offer that day that was accepted. Thank you
