#54 Catherine Webster, CEO of Thriving Investments

Catherine Webster - CEO of Thriving Investments.

Formerly known as PfP Capital, Thriving Investments is a leading fund manager with a social conscience. The business already manages three living strategies totalling £700m and so far it has acquired and delivered 3,500 private rented sector and for-sale homes and has six regeneration projects under way, as it targets 20,000 homes over the next decade.

Prior to joining Thriving Investments Catherine was an Executive Director – Strategy & Investment at Quintain and has previously held roles at Hudson Advisors and Lehman Brothers among others.

Catherine has an MBA from INSEAD and is a graduate of the University of Reading.

I sat down with Catherine to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:

* How she got into real estate

* Working across surveying, banking & private equity

* Not being afraid to take a backward / sideways career move

* Skill stacking

* Turning capital wins into community gains

* Advice for those early in their career

* Building 20,000 homes in the next decade

 

Oh, and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place would Catherine invest should she have £500m of capital at her disposal.
