UK: Scape Group has appointed Martijn Vos as CEO Europe for its Scape and Morro brands.
He brings nearly 20 years of experience in real estate investment, will spearhead Scape Group’s European investment activities, focusing on new student accommodation and coliving investments.
He joins from Abu Dhabi Investment Council, where he served as head of real estate Europe, providing strategic direction to the European portfolio and leading international joint ventures, SMA’s and fund investments.
Prior to that, he held senior portfolio management roles at APG Asset Management, where he was instrumental in sourcing and managing corporate and private real estate investments across Europe, with a focus on operationally intense real estate.
“I am thrilled to be joining Scape Group at such an exciting time for the company. With the Group’s strong track record in the UK, Australia and the USA and with a clear vision for growth, it’s a pivotal moment to expand our presence into Europe. I look forward to leveraging my experience to drive our investment strategy and deliver high-quality living solutions across the continent,” said Vos.
The announcement of his appointment coincides with the launch of Scape Group’s global, fully integrated platform, named Meanwhile. This new platform houses the Group’s market leading brands, Scape and Morro, and has around £7 billion in gross assets under management.
Tom Ward, co-Founder and CEO of Scape Group, said: “We are delighted to welcome Martijn to Scape. His deep expertise and proven leadership in real estate investment will be invaluable as we embark on this next chapter of our growth. The launch of Meanwhile is a testament to our commitment to building a robust, future-focused platform that will support our expansion into new markets and continue to deliver exceptional value to our stakeholders.”
Scape’s Bloomsbury PBSA property is one of the property tour venues for the Urban Living Festival 2024 later this month.
