“What I enjoy about Asset Management is the complexity and diversity of activities, from dealing with tenants, to creating strategies, and development, to dealing with investments and overseeing cash flows, or day-to-day management and people management. I am a big believer in leadership and teamwork. There is an experienced senior team at WOOD Real Estate that has a track record of interesting and challenging ventures. I am therefore looking forward to the challenges alongside my new colleagues and believe that I will be able to contribute to the growth of the value of our office sub-fund,” says Martin Rozhoň.

At WOOD Real Estate, Martin will be responsible for the management of some of the Bratislava office buildings, which are among the assets of the WOOD & Company Real Estate Fund. “In the last few years, several significant factors have influenced the office real estate market, which have affected the view of building owners and tenants on the future of offices. Therefore, I am glad that, at a time when quality Asset Management is more important than ever, Martin Rozhoň has strengthened our team, and his long experience guarantees the quality management of our Bratislava office buildings,” says Martin Šmigura, Investment Director, WOOD & Company.
