CBRE Global Investors has appointed Andrew Glass as managing director of its Australia operations as the global real estate investment management firm looks to expand its base in the country. Glass will lead the firm’s direct investment program, which will target key domestic markets and support the investment strategies of the global fund management business.
Glass comes to CBRE Global Investors with more than 25 years of commercial real estate experience.
