CBRE has appointed Richard Kirke to the newly created role of managing director, capital markets, Asia Pacific.
Based in Hong Kong, Kirke will be responsible for CBRE’s APAC capital markets, capital advisors and hotels businesses.
CBRE APAC executive chairman Rob Blain said Kirke’s appointment followed an extensive search.
“Capital Markets is a central linchpin of both our global and APAC service offerings, and a key part of our growth strategy in the region is to build strong leadership across business lines.
“In recognition of this, we have created this important new role to drive our APAC Capital Markets business and strengthen our position as the undisputed market leader in all the key markets in which we operate,” Blain said.
Kirke was most recently managing director of Colliers in Hong Kong.
