BNP Paribas Real Estate has announced the appointment of Bruno Jaczkowski as Senior Director within its London Development team.
Bruno has close to 25-years’ experience, with previous high profile consultancy and land agency roles where he originated and transacted numerous landmark London living, mixed-use and investment opportunities including London’s first major PRS development at the Perfume Factory in North Acton as well as three ground-breaking later living schemes across the Capital. Most recently, Bruno successfully negotiated the sale of a significant 35-acre town centre logistics development site in Grays, Essex for £50m.
In his new role, he will be working alongside Paul Nicholls, Head of London Development, advising on living-led mixed-use developments and expanding BNP Paribas Real Estate’s coverage across London.
Stephen Wolfe, Head of Commercial at BNP Paribas Real Estate commented: “Bruno is an exceptional addition to our expanding London Development team. Creating value and opportunity for our clients invariably starts with land. Complimented by our specialist sector experts, professional and consultancy teams, enables us to provide our clients with a fully integrated service. Macro-economic challenges are resulting in many developers and landowners pausing for thought and taking stock of their options. In these conditions expert advice is fundamental. As a galvanizing expert, with demonstrated expertise connecting landowners and developers across London’s most high profile developments and projects, Bruno is more than able to make the connections required to move our client’s projects forward in uncertain market conditions.”
Bruno Jaczkowski, Senior Director, London Development at BNP Paribas Real Estate added: “The London development market is at one of its most challenging cycles seen for a long time. Opportunity capitalisation will absolutely depend on determining the right uses and executing the correct strategy with the Landowner, and I look forward to bringing my expertise in this area to support clients in securing space and maximising returns.”
Combining the experience and history of BNP Paribas Real Estate and Strutt & Parker, the Development & Planning teams support landowners, developers, funds and local authorities to unlock development opportunities across all asset types. They have a strong track record in extracting value from complex projects, combining our local knowledge with technical expertise.
Bruno’s appointment follows the appointment of Katrina Love as Director in West End Agency, and Fergus Keane to lead its Central London Investment team, demonstrating BNP Paribas Real Estate’s continued drive to connect clients with opportunities and sustainable property solutions through expert advice, insight, and financial acumen, supporting them to create long term outperformance and value in a changing world.
