Student accommodation specialist Nido Living has appointed Ryan Lee as chief financial officer as the company gears up for an expansion drive.
The CPP Investments-backed company is eyeing up acquisitions and opportunities in Italy and Germany, alongside continued growth in Spain.
Lee joins from Atrium European Real Estate, now part of the G City Group, where he was the chief executive. Before that, he held the chief financial officer role at Atrium and has also held senior roles at CEDC, JTI and Unilever.
Lee will work closely with Nido’s chief executive Carlo Matta and chief operating officer Darren Gardner, and be based at Nido’s headquarters in Amsterdam.
Matta, said: “Ryan’s extensive background in real estate and the rental living sector across multiple countries makes him an invaluable addition to our team. We are excited to leverage his experience as we enter new markets in Italy and Germany, where the demand for purpose-built student accommodation significantly outweighs the supply.
“Ryan’s expertise will be instrumental in helping us achieve our goal of becoming the leading student accommodation provider in these key regions.”
