David was previously Chairman of Capital & Regional plc, Dar Global PLC, Custodian Property Income plc and GCP Student Living plc among other roles.

Massy Larizadeh, Senior Independent Director of Regional REIT said: "Following a thorough independent selection process, the Board is delighted that David is joining the Board of Regional REIT. David's impressive career in fund management and extensive listed commercial real estate experience will be of great benefit to the Company at this important stage of its life and in the future.

On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank Kevin for his leadership and significant contribution to Regional REIT."

David Hunter commented: "I'm delighted to be selected by Regional REIT as the Independent Non-Executive Chair. Regional REIT is at a key inflection point having recently completed a successful significant capital raise. This has placed the Company on a much firmer financial footing and we can now focus on enhancing shareholder value through further active portfolio management activities, maximising occupancy and capitalising on the developing trend of workers returning to the office."
