Trilogy Real Estate has appointed former Picton senior asset manager Laurence Jones as its new head of asset management.
The appointment bolsters Trilogy’s 10-strong team, which is currently on site with schemes in east London and Manchester, and is actively seeking new opportunities to reposition tired or overlooked assets to create contemporary workplaces and mixed-use destinations.
As a senior asset manager at Picton, Jones was responsible for the refurbishment, development and repositioning of numerous retail, leisure and office assets across the UK.
Prior to Picton, Jones was an assistant fund manager at CBRE Global Investors and a central London retail agent at Dalgleish/CBRE.
Robert Wolstenholme, founder of Trilogy Real Estate, said: “Laurence brings significant depth to our asset management team as we continue to pursue our mixed-use, hands-on real estate strategies in the most dynamic cities and neighbourhoods of the UK.”
The news comes as Trilogy prepares to launch the first phase of Republic at East India Dock, E14, with investor LaSalle Investment Management. Trilogy’s other major scheme, Great Northern Warehouse in central Manchester, which backed by Peterson Group of Hong Kong, is due to submit for planning in autumn 2017.
