Workspace has named former CBRE UK chairman Stephen Hubbard as its new non-executive chairman.
Hubbard’s new role will take effect on 9 July, after the company’s AGM. He is already a non-executive director at the company and a member of the remuneration, audit and nominations committees.
Hubbard most recently served as chairman of CBRE UK, having joined Richard Ellis in 1976, and held the position of head of EMEA and UK capital markets from 1998 to 2012. He retired from the agency at the end of last year.
He joined Workspace’s board in 2014, and also serves as non-executive chairman of LXi REIT.
Graham Clemett, chief executive of Workspace, said Hubbard’s appointment will add “in-depth knowledge of both Workspace and the wider property market”.
Clemett said: “His experience will help support our strategy going forward, as we enhance our customer offer and continue to build on our leading position in the London market.”
