Jay Squier - Managing Director - Henley Investment Management

Henley Investments is pleased to announce the appointment of Jay Squier as Managing Director.

Jay, who joins Henley from Native Land, will be responsible for the development and asset management of the company’s diverse portfolio of multi-sector projects across the UK and Europe.

His appointment comes as Henley continues its strategic expansion into key markets, strengthening its leadership team in line with the company’s ambitious growth plans.

Henley is currently overseeing several major urban regeneration projects in London, Manchester, and Birmingham, in addition to delivering 6,500 homes and supporting amenities on a 650-acre site at Ebbsfleet Garden City.

Ian Rickwood, CEO of Henley Investments, said:

We are accelerating our development pipeline over the coming months, with a number of significant housing-led regeneration schemes across the UK that align with the new government’s priorities. Our investment will help tackle the housing crisis and drive economic growth.

It is a real coup for the business to bring Jay on board, given his considerable expertise and proven track record. He is a great fit for our senior leadership team and will spearhead our development initiatives while overseeing the asset management of our growing portfolio. The newly appointed Senior Advisory Board is comprised of first-class executives who, alongside our new capital, demonstrate Henley’s ambition to help get Britain building.

Jay Squier added:

I am thrilled to be joining Henley at such an exciting time for the company. I look forward to collaborating with such a talented and entrepreneurial team while delivering some remarkable projects.

Henley has also established a Senior Advisory Board, bringing on a trio of specialist advisors to enhance its expertise:

Lisa Hollands, a renowned residential advisor in London, with a 35-year career including her role as Managing Director of CBRE’s residential business.

Stephen Peters, who has enjoyed a 40-year career in real estate, most notably as Managing Director of People for Places South.
