Former Canadian prime minister Stephen Harper has joined the board of directors at Colliers International.
Harper was appointed following his retirement as a member of the Canadian parliament last year.
Colliers said the appointment will enable the firm to give its clients “a unique international perspective”.
Jay S Hennick, chairman and chief executive of Colliers, said: “We are extremely pleased to have Mr Harper join our board. He brings a wealth of experience along with the unparalleled knowledge of a former G7 leader, and insights that further differentiate our platform as we expand our business around the world.
“We are proud that he has agreed to join our team and excited about the contribution he will make in accelerating our success.”
Harper served as prime minister from 2006 to 2015 and led the Conservative party until its defeat to Justin Trudeau’s Liberals in last year’s federal election.
He was the longest serving Conservative prime minister in Canada since the 19th century.
