Based in Singapore, Armstrong assumes his new role with immediate effect, taking over from William Beardmore-Gray, as he moves into his new role as senior partner and Group chair in April 2022.

Having joined Knight Frank in Australia in 2007, he brings over 20 years of experience in transaction management and advisory, working with occupier and landlord clients across both the office and industrial sectors. Over the past three years, the team has more than doubled the size of the real estate portfolios it manages on behalf of clients.

The appointment follows the firm’s announcement of its new US partner, Cresa. Knight Frank and Cresa have partnered their Global Portfolio Solutions businesses, placing significant investment in bespoke technology and research capabilities to provide innovative occupier solutions.
