The Role - Director, Loan Recovery
The role will sit within the Loan Recovery team, which forms part of Loan Services within Debt and Structured Finance, the part of CBRE focused on providing advisory services to lenders.
CBRE Loan Recovery helps lenders recover money they've lent against real estate which is facing distress. Services provided include advising on debt restructures, providing intensive loan monitoring advice, completing asset/portfolio reviews and providing enforcement options through acting as LPA Receivers or property advisers to Administrators.
The key focus of this role will be on enforcement work and acting as Fixed Charge Receivers where we take control of property, assess the best strategy to recover the lenders' money and then execute that strategy. This may include, for example, letting vacant space, completing development works (including planning and/or construction works) and general asset management prior to a sale of the property.
Clients include clearing banks, challenger banks/lenders, funds and private lenders.
Demand for receivership advice is high. Our pipeline reflects it. This is a team with momentum, and we are looking for someone ready to lead within it.
This is an excellent opportunity for a highly motivated individual seeking to make a significant impact.
