Alex Wilson, a former director of Legal and General Property, has become a non-executive director of Wilky Fund Management.
WFM, part of a privately-owned property group based in Surrey and Hampshire, has over £460m worth of property under management for pension funds, including the recently awarded mandate for Associated British Foods.
Wilson, 53, was director of Specialist Unit Trusts/Partnerships at L&G Property, which has £13bn of UK real estate under fund management. He has been asked to advise The Wilky Group, a 60-year-old family business, on its strategic business development.
Wilky is currently developing the UK’s largest primary healthcare centre, the 135,000 sqft Aldershot Centre for Health. It also has interests in strategic sites near Gatwick and Southampton, as well as its own commercial property portfolio including a prestigious chain of business centres in heritage buildings.
Alex Wilson said: “I am excited to be working within an organisation that is committed to expand its Fund Management arm and unlock its development opportunities over the next five years.”
Wilky chief executive Malcolm Young said: “Alex has nearly 30 years experience at the highest levels of fund management. We look forward to benefiting from Alex’s knowledge, experience and counsel.”
