Nina James has joined Blackstone from Australia’s Investa
As part of a build-up of its global ESG team, private equity major Blackstone has appointed Nina James to lead its environmental, social and governance efforts in Asian real estate.
The hiring of the former Investa exec to fill one of five newly-created managing director positions across the US, Europe and Asia comes as New York-based Blackstone adds resources and capabilities within its business units and builds out its corporate ESG structure.
The team will continue to advance Blackstone’s decade-long focus on ESG, the group said in a release, with initiatives including carbon emissions reductions and greater diversity in the boardroom.
