Brendan Cannon appointed Charter Hall key account manager
Charter Hall Direct Property has appointed former Wallaby Brendan Cannon as its key account manager for Western Australia and Queensland.
Cannon will be the primary contact for financial advisers in Western Australia and Queensland, and will be responsible for communicating Charter Hall’s offering in these markets.
He will also be responsible for servicing and keeping advisers and investors up-to-date on property markets, Charter Hall said.
Cannon joined Charter Hall in 2007 as development manager for the group’s Brisbane operations.
Charter Hall Direct Property chief executive Richard Stacker said that Cannon’s knowledge and experience in property, and excellent relationships with the business community in Western Australia and Queensland, would make him an asset to the direct property business.
“Charter Hall is very positive about the opportunity in these two growth states, having historically had a solid support base for our previously launched property funds and having seen very good inflow of equity in our recent office fund offerings, including strong initial demand for our industrial fund,” Stacker said.
Cannon said that Charter Hall was seeing increased interest from investors, with the property sector showing early signs of what could be a strong recovery phase
“I look forward to working across Western Australian and Queensland - two states in which I represented in rugby for over eight years,” he said.
Cannon will be master of ceremonies at the Charter Hall Investor Forum to be held in September across all Australian states.
