Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners managing director, APAC, Rob Kerr, is to leave the firm at the end of July after eight years. 

Kerr is the firm’s managing director, head of capital formation and investor engagement, APAC. He originally joined the firm in February 2016.

Quinbrook is a specialist investment manager focused on infrastructure in the UK, US and Australia. 

Co-founder David Scaysbrook, said: “Rob has been a highly valued member of the Quinbrook senior team for the past eight years and has been instrumental in raising considerable capital for multiple Quinbrook funds and establishing important relationships with our APAC investors.”

In his place, the firm has appointed Ryan Gordon who joins from 18 years at institutional manager QIC where, most recently, he served as managing director for clients and business development. Prior to this, he held roles at Goldman Sachs and National Australia Bank. 

He has over 20 years’ experience in investment sales and investor relations, covering private and listed markets including infrastructure and private equity. 

It has also appointed Jonathan Borland as senior director for relationships and fundraising, Europe and the Nordics, who joins after six years at infrastructure asset manager DWS Infrastructure. He previously worked at Aberdeen Standard Investments. 

Scaysbrook said: “Quinbrook is experiencing rapid growth with multiple new team appointments across all key functions of our business as we launch new products and seek to expand our investor base across the world. As highly experienced professionals in private capital, Ryan and Jonathan will each play an important role in expanding our internal sales and client engagement capabilities.

“Ryan and Jonathan’s respective track records of raising institutional capital for infrastructure and building long-term investor relationships make their appointments both very timely and welcome.”

The appointments follow the senior appointment last November of Hilkka Komulainen as global head of sustainability and impact to drive the firm’s sustainability and impact initiatives across all funds and regions. Among her previous roles, Komulainen worked at the Principles for Responsible Investment where she established a C-suite advisory committee to guide ESG best practice in infrastructure investing.
