CBRE has appointed former Cushman & Wakefield head of EMEA hotel transactions Rob Seabrook as an executive director.
Seabrook rejoins the agent from Cushman, where he has worked since 2017. Before this, he was a senior member of CBRE’s UK hotels capital markets team, advising on deals including the sale of the Jupiter Portfolio, the Regency Hotel at 100 Queensgate, Hilton Wembley and the Fitzpatrick portfolio in Dublin.
At CBRE, Seabrook will be responsible for major hotel asset sales in the UK, with a particular focus on London.
Seabrook has more than 30 years’ investment experience and has specialised in hotel investment for the past 24, advising on single assets as well as large portfolios.
Kenneth Hatton, head of hotels, Europe, said: “Rob is well-known and widely respected across the industry and is a trusted adviser to a number of leading investors.
“His return to CBRE will further enhance the breadth of expertise of the existing hotels capital markets team, which is bolstered by rich industry experience in-house as well as the strength of the debt and structured finance team and wider CBRE business.
“With interest rates stabilising, the hotels investment market is starting to look very interesting for 2024 and beyond, and Rob’s arrival appears almost perfectly timed.”
