#24 Paul O’Grady, Portfolio Director for the London Estate at Grosvenor

Paul is responsible for the strategy, placemaking, stakeholder management, capital allocation and strategic direction of the London Estate. He has previously held roles in investment, asset management and portfolio management across Grosvenor Europe and has managed three cross-border retail funds on behalf of various international investors, and he also set up Grosvenor’s Stockholm Office.   Paul is a Scholar at Christ's College, Cambridge. He holds an MSc in Real Estate Investment and Finance from the University of Reading. He is a Member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.   I sat down with Paul to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:

• How he got into Real Estate
• Placemaking
• Building a culture and identity in a geolocation
• Measuring success without an ‘Exit’Stakeholder Management
• Mindset needed when working at a Landed Estate
• Oh, and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place Paul would invest should he have £500m of equity at his disposal?
