BNP Paribas Real Estate has appointed Fiona Hamilton as global head of retail for international brands to assist and drive its international strategy.
The former Scottish Business Woman of the Year will join BNP Paribas Real Estate on November 16, 2015. She will report to Etienne Prongué, head of International Investment Group (IIG) at BNP Paribas Real Estate.
Hamilton and her team at BNP Paribas Real Estate will provide strategic advice to international retailers, helping global brands with their pan-European retail operations.
The appointment marks a return to the UK retail scene for Hamilton, who has spent recent years running JLL's Transport Airport and Global Infrastructure (TAGI) Group. At BNP Paribas Real Estate, she will continue to work on master planning advice and retail strategy for major transport hubs.
Before JLL, Hamilton founded and ran her own retail consultancy, Hamilton Glen, for almost 20 years until it was bought by King Sturge in 2008. She joined as an equity partner and ran one of King Sturge’s northern offices until 2011, when King Sturge merged with JLL.
