Colliers International has appointed Richard Cash to WA chief executive as it works to re-establish its presence in WA after the franchise agreement with the former Colliers WA ended.
A former CBRE director, Mr Cash has worked in the property sector for more than two decades including four years at Colliers WA franchise business in the early 2000s.
His appointment follows the rebranding of Colliers International’s Western Australian franchise Colliers WA to Cygnet West, after two decades of multinational ownership.
Perth valuation experts Dean Johnston and Zane Gil, office leasing expert Jemma Hutchinson, and real estate management leader Malcolm Reed will join Mr Cash at the company’s new premises at 240 St Georges Terrace.
Colliers chief executive for Australia Malcolm Tyson said Mr Cash joined the company with 20 years’ experience in the Perth property industry across several major agencies and corporates.
“He is respected by his clients and peers alike, is an expert in the Perth property market and will maximise local opportunities across the national and Asia-Pacific landscape.
“Richard recognised that in joining Colliers, there was a rare opportunity to start a fresh, future-focused business offering and assemble a best-in-class team of local experts who can leverage our global brand and platform.
“His high energy and enthusiasm makes Richard a perfect fit for our enterprising culture and we are thrilled to welcome him back to Colliers.”
