Kempf, who was most recently COO at Coor Denmark, will become part of Newsec Property Asset Management’s Nordic management team and report to Björn Lindeborg.

'We are very pleased to be able to welcome Thomas to Newsec. Last year, we started a change journey with the aim of strengthening the Danish business and Thomas has the right skill set to lead that process going forward,' commented Björn Lindeborg, head of Newsec Property Asset Management.

'I am very excited to take this next step in my career,' said Kempf. 'I am very much looking forward to working in such a rapidly changing company and industry where digitalisation and competition from both international players and local start-ups are changing the playing field.'

Kempf is a Danish citizen with more than 20 years’ experience from ISS, both in the UK and in Denmark, and was senior vice president at Saxo Bank.
