Helen Hare, GPE’s director of projects, has been appointed junior vice president of the British Council for Offices.
Hare joins current president Despina Katsikakis of Cushman & Wakefield, and senior vice president Peter Crowther of Bruntwood on the BCO’s board of management and brings with her a wealth of knowledge, with some 30 years’ experience in the sector and a passion for unlocking the potential of young people in the real estate sector.
“Having been part of the organisation for over 10 years’ and seen first-hand its importance for informing, inspiring and sharing best practice, taking on a leadership role feels like a natural transition and I look forward to working with the BCO team as it continues to support the ongoing evolution of the office sector,” said Hare.
BCO chief executive Richard Kauntze added: “Helen is a great addition to the BCO’s presidential team. She has been a long-standing supporter of the BCO for many years, and I have no doubt that Helen will make an outstanding contribution to our organisation.
“Helen’s extensive experience will be invaluable to the BCO as we continue to make the case for the office as an integral part of our cities.”
