IFM Investors has named its new head of real estate to oversee its $20.8 billion real estate portfolio, following the resignation of Chris Chapple in November last year.

Scott Mosely will join the organisation on September 1, replacing John Dynon, who has been in the role on an interim basis.

Before that, he was at Lendlease for over 25 years, leading in senior roles such as chief investment officer, managing director for funds and investment management, head of commercial, and more.

Commenting, IFM Investors chief executive David Neal said Mosely has a strong track record of delivering outcomes at scale andrepositioning portfolios to improve performance.

"Scott's experience, leadership and disciplined approach will further strengthen our real estate platform, positioning the business for its next phase and supporting IFM to deliver for our clients and the working people they represent," Neal said.

Meanwhile, Mosely said he looks forward to joining IFM at an important time.

"IFM has a clear purpose and a long-term approach - investing to deliver long-term outcomes for clients and the working people they represent. I'm excited to join the team at such an important time for the real estate platform," Mosely said.

"I see significant opportunity to build on IFM's strong foundations, continuing to position the portfolio for resilience and performance while unlocking value across key sectors and markets."
