Hilco Real Estate Finance has appointed experienced investment professional Charlie Job as an associate to work across the UK, with the firm looking to build its presence nationwide.
Job has more than five years’ experience across real estate, credit and mergers and acquisitions, according to HREF, starting his career at NatWest Markets before joining Arrow Global.
At Arrow Global, Job worked on distressed and special situations credit and equity investments across Europe, as well as strategic platform acquisitions for the fund manager.
Andrew Ward, managing director at HREF, said in a statement: "With his strong track record of working in special situations investments and private credit, Charlie is a valuable addition as we seek to build out the team across the UK."
The specialist real estate lender launched last year and has already lent more than £50 million in its first four months operational in the UK, with an average facility size of £10 million.
Headquartered in London and with offices across the UK, HREF is a fully integrated subsidiary of Hilco Global, the multi-national financial services group with more than $3 billion of assets under management.
