London – Dominus Real Estate has recently made five strategic hires as part of its ambitious growth trajectory. With a clear vision to triple the size of the business and become London’s premier developer of purpose-built student accommodation, as well as expanding its portfolio with new hotels and ventures into the build-to-rent sector, Dominus is committed to attracting top talent from across the industry.
Adding to the existing 35-person team are Hugh Wilson, Land Manager, Peter Millington and Onder Atasayar, Senior Investment Analysts, Adib Jazireh, Development Manager and Edward Bracken, Cluster General Manager for two of Dominus’ hotels.
Preet Ahluwalia, Principal Director at Dominus, said: “These new hires are fundamental to our continued growth. With hires into our land, development and investment teams we are committed to delivering our projects across the UK as well as identifying new land opportunities in key geographies.
“These new colleagues have joined at an exciting time. 2023 is a key year for us and we have had some milestone projects progress through planning, along with a strong pipeline of future schemes on the horizon. We would like to welcome Peter, Onder, Hugh, Adib and Edward to the team and are excited about their involvement in our continued success.”
Both Peter and Onder will be focused on underwriting new opportunities, supporting existing asset business plans and executing transactions. Peter joins Dominus from BTR specialist player, Long Harbour, whilst Onder joins following a decade long career with industry heavyweights EY and CBRE.
Adib will be joining the development team, supporting on PBSA and Hotel pipeline delivery, and brings a wealth of knowledge across PBSA, BTR, Retirement and Hospitality sectors having previously worked for Balfour Beatty, Quartz and CA Ventures.
Outside of the head office hires, Edward has joined to manage Lost Property and The Dixon hotels in London. With over ten years’ experience in the industry, working for major international hotel brands including Radisson, Marriott, Intercontinental Hotels Group and Independent Luxury Hotels, Edward will be working with the teams to develop strategies that maximise the assets and ensure that guests enjoy the best experience.
Over the last 10 years, Dominus has become one of the fastest growing real estate platforms in the UK, rapidly expanding its property portfolio with diverse investments, from industry-leading hotels to residential properties, PBSA, regeneration projects and mixed-use schemes and hospitality.
The impressive pipeline includes ongoing PBSA developments under construction at 61-65 Holborn Viaduct, 181 Talgarth Road in Hammersmith, and 65 Crutched Friars, as well as the recent acquisition at Great Tower Street, which is yet to be determined.
