Plummer, who joined CBRE GI in 2006 when it took over his company Oxford Property Consultants, will succeed Pieter Henrikse, who is leaving at the end of April after 17 years with the company.

'We have a strong team throughout EMEA and Jeremy is well positioned to lead this team as we continue to drive investment performance for our clients,' said CEO Ritson Ferguson.

Plummer, who will be based in London, has 28 years' experience in the industry and was a co-founder of Oxford Property Consultants in 2001. He will continue in his current role as CEO of CBRE Global Investment Partners (GIP), though CIO Ian Gleeson will take over the day-to-day running of the business.

'With more than $31.3 bn [€27.7 bn] in assets under management and representing the largest source of client capital for the business globally, the EMEA region is a significant part of CBRE Global Investors’ global business,' Ferguson added. 'With a strong platform across Europe and a range of highly-rated programs, we believe we are well-positioned to continue to grow these programs and deliver excellent outcomes for investors.'
