James Markby, Founder and Managing Partner commented “John’s pedigree speaks for itself, having been at Oxford University, Clifford Chance and then General Counsel at CBREIM’s Indirect business. The timing is perfect as we look to make the most of the dislocated markets and competitive capital structuring across our business. It will be a winning combination”
