Team Overview: LaSalle Global Solutions (“GS”) manages c. US$13bn in client capital and invests with local managers and operating partners across the world. GS investments span the risk spectrum and are implemented through fund investments, co-investments, joint-ventures and separate accounts. GS has a global team of employees based in the Chicago, New York, Baltimore, London and Singapore offices and is supported by LaSalle’s extensive regional and global specialists covering Research & Strategy, Legal, HR, Accounting & Finance, Tax, and a global Investor Relations team.
GS takes a fundamental approach to investment and a relative value approach to global portfolio construction. As a long-term investor, thematic trends are also a focal point. Because we often have the opportunity to invest in both equity and debt, and in listed markets (primarily REIT securities) in addition to unlisted property and fund interests, we have the opportunity to compare asset classes, though the focus of the role we are hiring for is private equity real estate.
