Retail property fund manager Pradera has appointed Christina Forrest as investment director.
Forrest joins from Resolution Real Estate Advisors, where she specialised in acquiring and asset managing retail sites across Europe, including in France, Germany and the Netherlands.
Chairman Colin Campbell said: ‘Following the management buyout earlier this year we have focused our attention on growing all areas of the business and the addition of Christina is a real coup.
‘Her knowledge and experience will be invaluable as we continue to seek out opportunities across a number of regions in Europe.’
Since an internal management buyout in March which saw Campbell become the majority shareholder in the firm, Pradera has acquired nine assets totalling around €360 mln. The most recent purchases have been a retail park in the UK and a shopping centre in Italy on behalf of Tristan Capital Partners, for a combined value of over €140 mln.
