Segro, the European industrial space specialist, has appointed Sebastian Ott to its German business as investment director for Northern Europe. In this new position, he will be responsible for acquisitions and disposals in Germany and the Benelux countries.

After working for more than 10 years at Garbe Logistic in Hamburg, Ott moved to real estate consultancy King Sturge in 2010, where he assumed regional responsibility for the Frankfurt office and the field of manufacturing industry/logistics in Germany.

Following King Sturge's takeover by Jones Lang LaSalle in May 2010, Ott worked in the field of manufacturing industry investment in Frankfurt until December of last year. Here he was responsible for the logistics property business throughout Germany.
