CBRE Investment Management has appointed Ben van den Tol as director of client solutions.
In this role, Van den Tol will be responsible for leading client solutions for the UK Defined Contribution (DC) market, including building bespoke solutions across private and listed real estate and infrastructure.
Based in CBRE IM’s London office, he will report to Chris Wood, EMEA head of client solutions.
'The Defined Contribution channel is a key strategy focus for CBRE IM globally, and particularly in the UK, where major structural shifts are unfolding to enable DC savers to reap the benefits of investment in private market strategies,' commented Wood.
With over 15 years of industry experience, Van den Tol joins CBRE IM from Carne Group, where he was business development director and the lead for the UK Defined Contribution channel. Prior to that, he served as head of Institutional Business & Consultant Relationships at Investors Mutual in Sydney, Australia for close to eight years.
The appointment follows the recent addition of Alexandra Hayate as senior director to the client solutions team.
