Cushman & Wakefield has announced the appointment of Andrew Hawkins as an international partner and senior leader within its London Capital Markets team, starting in summer 2018.
Hawkins is joining Cushman & Wakefield from JLL, where he was head of City Capital Markets. He spent more than 21 years at JLL, the last 11 of which have been working in the City of London where he has closed over £10 bn of deals, advising sovereign wealth funds, REITs, institutional investors and private investors on some of London’s most-significant investment and development deals.
In his new role at Cushman & Wakefield, Hawkins will work closely with International Partners Martin Lay and Richard Womack, who jointly lead the 25-strong London Capital Markets team.
Toby Ogden, head of London Markets, Cushman & Wakefield, said: 'Andrew is a standout performer in the London market with an exceptional track-record of working on high-profile and complex transactions. He will feel right at home in our London Capital Markets team which has enjoyed record-breaking success this year-'
Cushman & Wakefield’s London Markets division comprises capital markets, occupier representation, leasing, residential, development and healthcare teams – all operating across the capital as a whole, rather than the traditional City and West End model.
