About Macaulay & Co
Get to know us
We are a local and family-run team specialising in the management of residential and commercial lettings, as well as block and estate management. Our approach ensures that every interaction with us is positive, enjoyable, and personable.
Our mission is to revive the personal touch in property management by offering both landlords and tenants a hands-on, honest and proactive service. We believe this has been missing in the area, especially with the rise of chain and corporate agencies that are disconnected from the local communities they serve.
We strive to be the go-to agency for all aspects of property lettings, collaborating closely with other local property experts to enhance the quality of service within our industry.
With over 13 years of experience in the Private Rented Sector, Macaulay is our in-house property expert. He began his career straight out of school at 16 as an apprentice for Inghams, an independent letting agency in Bingley. Since then, he’s earned industry-recognised qualifications, joined the Association of Residential Lettings Agents, and become a regulated member of PropertyMark.
His journey included a brief stint at Dacre, Son and Hartley before he became the Branch Manager of another well-established firm in Bingley, a role he excelled in for 5 years.
Macaulay has tried to escape the property industry twice - once to sell IT equipment and another time to soar into the aviation industry. But that never really took off, and the strongest pull has always been property!
Outside the office, Macaulay loves spending time with his small family, playing football locally for Sutton, or cheering on Everton!
Joanne is part of our management team, working in the office to support our landlords and tenants handling the day-to-day property management and administrative tasks. She is also an accredited member of PropertyMark.
When she’s not with us, you may see Joanne in her scrubs as she also works as a registered nurse locally for the NHS.
Before her nursing career, Joanne gained valuable experience working in the mortgage sector for a large corporation, specifically in complaint handling.
Outside the office, Joanne is often seen walking in the village with our son and two dogs. You might also find her enjoying a drink or two with friends!
Although not always in the office, Doug and Dottie are the dynamic duo of our “barketing” team. When they’re not busy napping or chasing their tails, these furry colleagues are boosting morale and providing plenty of laughs. Doug specialises in barking out the latest ideas, while Dottie ensures everyone stays pawsitive. They’re the heart and soul of our team, and they never miss an opportunity to fetch new clients!
