NON-bank lender MaxCap Group has appointed commercial real estate veteran and AMP Capital real estate CIO Rob Hattersley as group head of capital.
Hattersley will be responsible for raising capital for MaxCap’s existing funds and mandates and also work closely with MaxCap’s investment team to raise capital for new products across both debt and equity investments.
Hattersley has been involved in the real estate and funds management industry in Australia for more than 30 years. Hattersley joined AMP Capital in September last year after 21 years at Lendlease, including six as the group CIO and where he was responsible for managing capital relationships, equity raising, and reducing product and investor risk to Lendlease Group and its joint venture partners.
He had been a director of the Lendlease Real Estate Investment Trustee Board for over 10 years, and before Lendlease worked for Mirvac for more than a decade as a director of investments.
MaxCap executive chairman Wayne Lasky said Hattersley “has an exemplary track record and shares our unequivocal focus on delivering lasting value for our investor clients.
“Rob will play a pivotal role executing and enhancing our capital strategy, leading our high-performance capital raising team and delivering best-in-class service to local and global investors alike.
“There is no finer capital raising executive in Australia and we look forward to joining forces to deliver superior returns for our investment partners.”
Hattersley said, “This is such an exciting time for the industry and the sector which is particularly well positioned at a challenging time in the real asset pricing cycle to deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns to an increasingly engaged investor market.”
He will report to Lasky and starts in his new role on 2nd September, to be based in Sydney.
