St Modwen Logistics, a logistics development firm owned by Blackstone, has bolstered its portfolio and development teams after a series of new hires.
Following several acquisitions in the North West, St Modwen has appointed Howard Hill as director of asset management for the region. Hill joins from Harbert Management Corporation, a US-based alternative asset manager, having previously spent nine years in CBRE’s asset management team. As well as managing St Modwen’s existing portfolio of assets, he will also work closely with the transactions team to identify and execute opportunities to expand its portfolio in the North West.
Hill will be supported by James Berry who joins St Modwen as an asset manager for the North West. Berry has spent the past five years specialising in industrial and logistics agency, most recently as a senior surveyor at CBRE based in Manchester. In his new role, he will oversee the business plans for several of St Modwen’s assets in the North West, optimising their operations and liaising closely with customers to improve asset performance.
