Link AM appoints COO
Link Asset Management Limited, manager of Link Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), has appointed Greg Chubb as chief operating officer – international.
Joining in April 2022, Chubb would lead the group’s asset management, leasing and corporate functions, as well as operation setup in Australia, the United Kingdom and other Asia locations, excluding Mainland China and Hong Kong.
Link’s chief executive officer, George Hongchoy, said he was delighted to welcome Chubb to the “Link family”.
“He has over 30 years of extensive experience across retail, commercial real estate funds and REIT operations,” Hongchoy said.
“His expertise in shaping commercial portfolio, particularly in delivering an optimal business mix with strong customer appeal through active asset management, will be invaluable to us as we continue to advance our role as a world class real estate manager and investor.”
Chubb would join from Charter Hall Group, where he currently worked as retail chief executive while occupying the role of director of Charter Hall Retail REIT. Prior to Charter Hall he held various leadership roles in Australia at Coles Supermarkets, Mirvac and Lend Lease, and was based in Hong Kong with Jones Lang LaSalle between 2009 and 2010.
“As Link seeks to continue to build its portfolio, and to reinforce its leading position in the REIT industry, I am very much looking forward to working with my new colleagues on the opportunities and challenges ahead,” Chubb said.
