DENVER, Feb. 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Black Creek Group, a Denver-based real estate investment management firm, today announced the appointment of Heather Grubbs as Managing Director – Chief Marketing Officer. Ms. Grubbs will oversee all aspects of the firm’s marketing strategy, with an emphasis on positioning Black Creek’s investment products to investment professionals for use in their client’s portfolios.
“Heather is a strategic thinker who has a deep understanding of the retail segment and intermediary distribution channels, which will be a key growth driver for firms investing in commercial real estate over the next several years,” said Raj Dhanda, President of Black Creek Group. Mr. Dhanda explained that while institutional investors will remain a major force in the commercial real estate market and an important constituency for Black Creek, many have already allocated to the asset class: “We’re delivering institutional-quality real estate investment products that are tailored for individual investors and I’m confident Heather can help us share that message.”
