Description
Korn Ferry is pleased to represent one of the largest global real estate investment firms in their search for a Vice President of Real Estate Investment Services. Our client, established in 1981, is driven by a common purpose – securing their country’s financial future.
The organization was established in a time when the idea that a country should manage its reserves for long-term returns was unconventional. As the world’s first non-commodity-based sovereign wealth fund, their vision was original, bold and forward-looking. They enabled their country to develop the essential capability of managing its own reserves, placing the country at the helm of its own long-term destiny. This spirit of boldness and courage is our client’s legacy and inspiration, inherited by all in the organization.
Today, they are a global long-term investor, managing most of the Government's financial assets, investing for the long-term with an aim to preserve and enhance the international purchasing power of the funds placed in their care.
