Newly formed pan-European alternative investment management firm Tunstall Real Estate Asset Management has appointed Christopher Hodson as finance director.
Hodson joins Tunstall from strategic land development company Lands Improvement Holdings Limited, where he held the position of finance director since joining the company in 2009. Prior to this, he held a range of senior finance positions at companies including MGPA, now BlackRock, Resolution Property and Treasury Holdings.
Roger Clarke, Chief Executive of Tunstall, said: “Christopher joins us at an exciting moment in Tunstall’s growth. We have ambitious plans for Tunstall as a true multi-strategy real estate investment platform, and Christopher’s experience and impressive track record mean that he is well positioned to help Tunstall grow. We very much look forward to working with him."
In his role at Tunstall, Hodson will be responsible for the firm’s financial reporting and finance related operations, as well as working to produce regular forecasts for business planning and risk management for Tunstall’s treasury activities and provide commercial leadership and support to the business.
The appointment follows the recent announcement of Tunstall’s first transaction with the acquisition of Pinnacle Group in joint venture with Starwood Capital Group.
News of Tunstall's creation, launching a debt strategy with M7 Real Estate to lend in the Netherlands, was first broken in EuroProperty on June 1st.
'This is a great opportunity to join a company that is at an important stage of its inception, and I look forward to working with the team to build on Tunstall’s strong foundations,' concluded Hodson.
