Under this new structure, Rik Eertink, who has served as president of EMEA Direct Real Estate for the past five years, will now assume the expanded role of president and CIO of EMEA Direct Real Estate. 
He will be supported by four senior leaders—Hannah Marshall, Bas Tiemstra, Jan-Willem Bastijn, and Niels Kokkeel—who will take on broadened responsibilities.
Concurrently, Paul Gibson will be departing the firm to pursue a senior role elsewhere in the European real estate industry.
Adam Gallistel, Co-CEO and CIO of CBRE IM, said: “This evolved model leverages the strengths of our platform and positions us to enhance investment performance for our clients.” 
Andy Glanzman, Co-CEO and president of CBRE IM, added: “The elevation of top talent is a priority focus area for us. This team has deep experience, strong track records and a shared commitment to delivering differentiated outcomes for our clients.”
