'Both Tom and Zhongnan join us with impressive track records and at an important moment in Tunstall’s development as a firm,' commented Roger Clarke, chief executive of Tunstall. 'We look forward to them joining the team and leveraging their experience as we build on our first deals and transactions to establish Tunstall as a leading multi-strategy real estate investment platform.'

Tunley joins Tunstall from Mount Street Loan Solutions LLP where, since March 2014, he was in the special projects team. Prior to this he worked as an analyst in the Special Servicing team at Morgan Stanley, and over the course of his career has underwritten over €10 bn of non-performing loan transactions in multiple jurisdictions, including the UK, Netherlands, France, Germany, Finland and Greece.

In his role as vice president, Tunley will be responsible for sourcing, deal execution and underwriting for all European debt investments.

Huang, who brings 10 years of experience in the real estate sector, will be responsible for assisting the wider team in the origination, underwriting, execution, asset management and exit of deals across a variety of strategies and sectors. He joins Tunstall from Grosvenor where he worked as a senior analyst since 2015, and has previously held roles at Orion Capital Managers and Frogmore.
