Valad manages 1.5 million m2 of space and has EUR 1.2 bn funds under management in the UK alone, almost a quarter of its total European funds under management.
Vincent joins from Interserve where he was head of estates strategy and advice. Prior to this he worked for Guardian Properties, Healey & Baker and REIT Asset Management.
His appointment comes as a result of Valad's strategy to expand its EUR 5.1 bn investment management business across Europe and its focus on helping its investors and banking partners with their often complex portfolio needs.
