Henderson Park, the new European real estate investment platform founded by Nick Weber, has appointed Michael Jenkinson, from Goldman Sachs, and Adel Oucherif, from CQS, as principals to its investment team.
'The calibre of these two appointments underlines the depth of our ambition to cement Henderson Park as a market leading European real estate investment platform, supported by a team of experienced professionals demonstrating a strong track record in the value-add and opportunistic sectors that we are targeting. Both Michael and Adel join Henderson Park at an exciting time, shortly after our launch, with significant funds available for deployment and with a strong pipeline of investment opportunities already identified,' commented Weber.
'It’s extremely encouraging for us to be able to attract such high-quality talent, and we now look forward to leveraging their clear aptitude as we seek to unlock complex real estate investment opportunities across Europe that have the potential to deliver attractive returns for our investors,' the founding partner added.
Reporting in to Weber, the principals will be responsible for sourcing and originating new deals across Europe, targeting value-add and opportunistic transactions in major real estate markets and looking to build on Henderson Park’s debut acquisition of Le Méridien Étoile hotel in Paris.
Henderson Park launched in September 2016 with $500 mln in committed capital from the Kuwait Investment Authority, Wafra Investment Advisory Group and Stone Point Capital as cornerstone investors.
