This strategic hire aims to bolster CTP's growth and investor engagement efforts.
Jones, who previously headed the European Real Estate Equity Research team at BNP Paribas, will work closely with Group CFO Richard Wilkinson and Maarten Otte. His role will involve actively meeting with both current and prospective investors.
This appointment underscores CTP's accelerated growth strategy, which includes an ambitious target of reaching 30 million m2 of gross lettable area (GLA) by 2030. This expansion will enhance the company's scale, portfolio quality, and development pipeline, enabling it to better serve its more than 1,500 tenants.
Rob Jones, head of Investor Relations and PR at CTP, said: “I am honoured to be joining CTP, having followed the Company’s remarkable growth for a number of years whilst covering it as an equities analyst. I believe that now is an incredibly exciting time for the company as it progresses on its recently announced growth trajectory to 30 million m2 of GLA by 2030. With its fully integrated, best-in-class platform and well-located land bank, CTP has a unique proposition that I view as underappreciated by the equity market. I will continue to build upon the Company’s engagement with the investment community, broadening the shareholder base and helping support CTP’s next phase of growth.”
In related news, CTP issued a €500 mln green bond with a 4.5-year maturity and a fixed coupon of 3.375% (Mid Swap +92bps). The bonds were settled and began trading on Euronext Dublin.
This new senior unsecured bond attracted significant investor interest, with an order book exceeding €4.4 bn, making it 8.8 times oversubscribed—the largest in CTP's history. 
The proceeds from this issuance will be used for a concurrent tender offer. The remaining funds will be allocated for general corporate purposes and to finance or refinance eligible assets, in line with CTP’s Green Bond Framework.
Through the concurrent tender offer, CTP will repurchase bonds totalling €216 mln. This proactive liquidity management strategy will help the Group manage its debt redemptions and achieve substantial interest savings.
The settlement of the tender offer is anticipated to occur on 21 January 2026.
