Guy Hollis, CBRE’s head of advisory and transactional services in EMEA, has left the company.
Hollis has left to pursue other interests and is expected to take up a series of non-advisory roles.
Different members of its EMEA executive committee will take on different elements of his former responsibilities.
Adolfo Ramirez-Escudero, chairman of capital markets for continental Europe and chief executive of Spain, will take on advisory, transaction and valuations business lines. Martin Samworth, chief executive of EMEA, is to take on additional responsibility within the hotel sector, while Ciaran Bird, UK managing director, will take on more responsibility for retail.
Hollis was head of CBRE’s Belfast office for three years to 1997 before moving to JLL to be head of Thailand and China for six years. He moved back to CBRE in 2007 as managing director of Ireland.
In 2013 he became chairman of Ireland, managing director of the Nordics and head of cross-border investment in EMEA before becoming head of advisory and transaction services in the region.
