RE Capital, the pan-European investment, development and asset management company, announces the appointment of Gavin Green as General Counsel. Gavin will head up the company’s legal activities across all jurisdictions and will start with RE Capital in London in February 2022.

Prior to joining RE Capital, Gavin has acted as General Counsel for MARK and Crossbay, overseeing all legal workstreams and managing external counsel.

As well as considerable experience in structuring, debt, limited partnership agreements, litigation and counsel, Gavin was the founding member of MARK’s ESG committee, working towards inclusion and improvement on GRESB and UNPRI.
Gavin has a broad legal multi-jurisdictional experience, spanning international leveraged and investment grade acquisitions (including bank and bond financings), real estate and logistics acquisitions (private, public and auction) and financings, portfolio acquisitions, litigation (out of court settlements) and court processes, treasuring and business restructuring and insolvency.
Newman Leech, CEO, said: “Gavin brings a highly impressive portfolio of experience and skills to the legal team at RE Capital. His expertise will help support the business’s aspirations for growth as we look to increase our AUM to exceed €2BN in the next 12 months.”
