Capital & Regional executive director Mark Bourgeois has taken over as president of the British Council of Shopping Centres.
He takes over from Hammerson chief executive David Atkins and will be supported by GL Heard planning director Guilia Bunting who becomes BCSC vice president.
Hark Group director Mark Williams has also been appointed BSCS junior vice president.
All three will sit on BCSC’s executive board and joint chief executive John Coyne in setting the direction for the organisation.
Bourgeois said: “David provided strong leadership in steering a strategic review that identified some significant changes for BCSC. I’m now looking forward to working with Giulia, Mark and the rest of the board in supporting John and his excellent team in implementing those changes, as BCSC evolves to take centre stage in the dynamic retail property industry.”
