Previously, Czybik, 36, was Director Leasing at Tishman Speyer, where he was involved with the leasing and marketing of the OpernTurm property, currently under construction in Frankfurt.

As of 1 April, he will join Christian Fritzsche in a senior position on the IFM Group's leasing team. He will be in charge of commercial leasing and the development of marketing strategies, and will provide the interface with project development. His co-worker Armin Roers, 29, will join him in the transfer to IFM.

Georg Glatzel, CEO of IFM Immobilien AG, commented: 'Alongside real estate marketing, where IFM sees itself as the trendsetter in the industry, the leasing business is an important guarantor of our company's success. With Mirko joining us, we believe we will be ideally positioned to meet future challenges.'

The IFM Group has achieved important leasing milestones in the past few weeks. In February, Nordic Capital became the first tenant to move into the recently completed Romeo & Julia office building in Frankfurt's West End. Lincoln International has been signed as a further tenant.
