GPT CFO Anastasia Clarke has resigned to take up the same position at Charter Hall, a week after GPT poached Charter Hall’s CFO Russell Proutt as its new CEO.
Completing the trade, Clarke will replace Proutt as CFO at Charter Hall and will also join the Charter Hall Executive Committee.
“We welcome Anastasia to Charter Hall as Group CFO and to our deeply experienced Executive Committee,” said David Harrison, CEO and managing director at Charter Hall.
“With a long history of 25 years within the property industry holding positions at Lend Lease, Dexus and most recently GPT, we look forward to Anastasia joining our Group and adding considerable value in her new role.”
Clarke has experience across all areas of real estate, including listed corporations, funds management, investment, asset management, development and construction.
“Anastasia has made an outstanding contribution to GPT having served as the Group’s CFO for the last 8 years. She leaves a strong legacy and we wish her well in her future role,” said Bob Johnston, managing director and CEO at GPT.
Last week, GPT appointed global property and finance executive Russell Proutt as the new CEO to replace the outgoing Bob Johnston. Proutt is expected to start with GPT no later than 25 March 2024.
Clarke will commence with Charter Hall on 1 February 2024.
