We are committed and driven to deliver the best possible performance for our clients’ long-term success. I look forward to working with our Custom Accounts clients in this new role, supported by our integrated pan-European operating platform and market-leading research, to achieve the investment objectives of their real estate investment programmes.”

Julian Agnew, outgoing Head of Custom Accounts, Europe at LaSalle Investment Management, said: “I have had a long career across LaSalle Investment Management, and I am very fortunate to have worked with some incredible people both internally and externally. LaSalle is well-positioned to continue to deliver exceptional value for clients, and Tom is the right leader to drive the next phase of growth for the Custom Accounts business.

“I look forward to the next challenge in an industry that I still find as rewarding and exciting as when I first started.”

Philip La Pierre, Head of Europe at LaSalle Investment Management, added: “We thank Julian for his distinguished service and leadership. Julian has played a seminal role in the success of the business, and we look forward to celebrating his contribution and many achievements at LaSalle before he leaves at the end of this year. We wish him every success in the next challenge that he takes up in the industry.

“Tom’s unique skillset and professional experience positions him well to take on this role, having been a member of Julian’s team for over 20 years.
