Hearthstone Investments appoints ex-Savills head of PR as non-executive director
Hearthstone Investments, the UK residential property fund manager, has appointed Jamie Jago to the board as a non-executive director.
Jamie retired from Savills in July 2021 after a 35-year career in PR specialising in residential property; the last 13 of which had been spent at the global property advisor following their acquisition in 2008 of the PR agency, Jago Dean, which she had co-founded in 2002.
Commenting on the appointment, Cedric Bucher CEO of Hearthstone, says: “Over the past five years Hearthstone Investments’ assets have nearly tripled with now close to £500m of capital committed by a range of institutional and private investors. A strong team both at executive and non-executive level has been and will continue to be at the heart of our growth, investment and client servicing strategy. We are delighted that Jamie joined our board – her experience and expertise will be invaluable to myself and our business over the coming years.”
Commenting on the appointment, Jamie Jago says: ‘’Having worked since I was 17, my intention was to take a year’s sabbatical before even thinking about consultancy or new projects. As it was, meeting Cedric within 24 hours of leaving Savills made me change my mind; the impression he made together with the obvious strengths of Hearthstone meant I jumped at the chance to be involved. I look forward to bringing a lifetime’s PR and communications experience to the role and working with this impressive board to continue to grow the business.”
