Kajima, the real asset investor, developer and manager, has appointed Tim James as investment director based at its newly located office in St Giles Square, London.
James will be responsible for growing Kajima’s London office portfolio, which will be an important focus of the business’s strategy in the coming years.
With over 15 years of experience in commercial property, he joins from investment manager Longmead Capital, where he was responsible for a significant investment and asset management portfolio, covering both London and UK regional cities. He has previously worked at Land Securities as part of the Central London portfolios team, and at Columbia Threadneedle, where he worked across a number of private equity funds.
His appointment follows the arrival earlier this summer of three new senior team members: Kate Pix, Stephen Young and Libby Butler, bringing Kajima’s total hires since the start of 2021 to 14 as it expands its UK presence.
