In his new role, Vaudin will manage the company’s business in Ireland, leading its investment, development and operational strategies.

Vaudin is a Chartered Surveyor with over 25 years’ development and asset management experience in the UK and Ireland. Before joining Round Hill, he was director and shareholder for over 12 years at WK Nowlan Real Estate Advisors in Dublin.

‘I’m excited about joining the Round Hill Capital team and helping to bring their extensive international experience to bear in the Irish student accommodation and residential sectors. We have ambitious plans and over €1 bn of capital to deploy in Ireland and setting up a locally staffed office is a sign of our intention to invest for the long term,’ said Vaudin.

His appointment coincides with the opening of Round Hill's new office at 12 Merrion Square in Dublin.
