Director - Property Investments
CurrentAs Director, Property Investments at Hadley Green, I’m primarily charged with conceiving a strategic roadmap for growing the Property Investment portfolio to circa $1 Billion funds under management. I have worked closely with the board and other critical stakeholders to ensure priorities are understood and expectations exceeded. With the board’s approval and support, we are achieving positive growth despite the impacts of Covid-19 and other challenging economic factors. Given the unprecedented events of the last few years, my role has broadened as I took on the additional responsibility of guiding the commercial real estate division through these uncertain times. My primary focus was the early introduction of a decisive strategic plan designed to derisk the portfolio and assisting in the continued delivery of an industry leading 8.25% average distribution (net of fees).I also conceived and implemented several other programs designed to stabilise the business during this time including an early lease renewal program which has resulted in a substantial increase in WALE from 1.9 years to 4.1 years creating future income and asset value security.On a day-to-day basis, I continue to direct the management of existing and ongoing assets including monitoring, review, performance analysis, governance and reporting. I continuously analyse risk and assess options to limit exposure of the business and to future-proof assets. I have developed and continue to carefully manage operational budgets and maintain full accountability for P&L, constantly seeking opportunities to optimise cash flow and profitability of the portfolio.Finally, I actively work to create a culture of inclusion, collaboration and innovation, and I empower my team to always think differently and consider alternatives. This has resulted in building a loyal team of high-performing professionals who are producing exceptional results under difficult circumstances.
