As Chief Executive and co-founder of Land Securities Trillium Plc (LS Trillium), the UK’s leading total property outsourcing company, Manish was responsible for the strategy, direction and implementation of all aspects of its business. Manish was also a main board member at Land Securities PLC, which purchased LS Trillium (then Trillium) in November 2000.

Manish was at the helm of LS Trillium since its formation in 1997 when it won its first contract to own and manage the majority of the Department for Work property portfolio. LS Trillium has enjoyed enormous success, winning the groundbreaking BBC property partnership and the innovative British Telecom contract which had an acquisition value of £2.8billion and over 8000 properties.

Manish resigned from the Land Securities Group in March 2002 when he formed Mountgrange Capital plc with Mr Martin Myers focusing on real estate and other investments. These have included interests in National Car Parks, where he is non-Executive Chairman and MITIE Plc where he is a non-Executive Director. He is also Chairman of the Remuneration Committee and a Member of the Audit Committee.

In September 2003, he was appointed by the Department of Culture, Media and Sport as a Commissioner of English Heritage.

In November 2003 he became a member of the Corporate Development Board of the National Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC).

Manish has been a Trustee of the Windsor Leadership Trust since May 2005.
