Terry McMillan

Raised in Hackney, Terry, who left school aged 16 with very few qualifications, immediately joined the Post Office, prior to identifying an opportunity and pursuing a career in the property industry.

Subsequent to a number of years’ experience, predominantly working on refurbishments, conversions and trading-stock, he went on to set-up ‘Trademark Homes’ in 1998, a company which has steadily and consistently evolved into a group of companies specialising in both property development and investment, now commonly known as ‘The Trademark Group’ http://www.trademarkgroup.co.uk/.

Having been based in Bermondsey, SE1 for over 20 years, The Trademark Group have become recognised as one of the pioneers in the regeneration of the area, resulting in a location filled with businesses of various sizes, along with being home to a diverse population of varying cultures, genders and backgrounds. Based on Trademark’s influence in the redevelopment of various areas within Southwark, Terry was invited to join the Court Leet of The Kings Manor and has since remained an active juror, working with other jurors to assist local causes and maintain the traditions of this worthy organisation. He is also a Trustee for the Freddie Farmer Foundation and a livery member of the Tylers and Bricklayers Company and in 2014 became a Freeman of the City.

Having built-up and diligently maintained a number of social and corporate partnerships and friendships, both Terry and The Trademark Group take pride in giving back to the community, particularly through a number of sponsorships and donations, including a number of sporting teams and a member of the British Olympic Team. Through The McMillan Family Trust Terry aims to make a real difference in the communities’, which are ever so similar to where he is from.
