Nicholas Gill has quit ING Real Estate Investment Management after 21 years with the firm.
Gill was head of acquisitions and development at ING REIM for 14 years, until January this year when he became co-head of the group’s value-add investment team.
He plans to take some time out before deciding his next career move and starting a new line of work.
Gill was one of the shareholder directors of Baring, Houston & Saunders, which was taken over by ING Real Estate in 1995 as part of ING’s £1 acquisition of Barings Bank.
Kevin Aitchison, chief executive of ING REIM UK, said: “We are all very sorry to see Nicholas go as his contribution to the business has been huge. We wish him continued success for the future and thank him for all that he has done for ING REIM/BH&S.”
Gill added: “I have had an excellent 21 years at ING REIM, however it feels that the time is right to move on and to concentrate on new challenges. After a short break I will be returning to the market at a very exciting and interesting time.”
Gill will leave ING REIM at the end of September.
His departure follows that of Robert Houston, who left the firm in April.
