Knight Frank has appointed current head of strategy Anthony Duggan to the newly created role of chair of Europe.
In his new role, Duggan will work alongside, and build upon, the platform put in place by Knight Frank’s European managing directors, Mike Bowden and Mark Harvey. The new leadership team will begin operating from December 2023.
William Beardmore-Gray, senior partner and group chair at Knight Frank, said: “As a business we have ambitious expansion goals across Europe and many new and exciting opportunities on the horizon. Having worked closely with Anthony for many years, I have no doubt that in his new role he will continue to build on our market-leading position alongside Mike and Mark. Their combined expertise will ensure we continue to provide the best service possible for our clients across key markets.”
Duggan added: “It is a privilege to be asked to lead Knight Frank’s European business alongside Mark and Mike at what is a time of significant change and opportunity both in the European property market and across the industry as a whole. Thanks to a fantastic team, we have seen remarkable growth in recent years, and I look forward to continuing to build on that platform and delivering sustained growth whilst ensuring we remain best-in-class partners to our clients.”
