DP World London Gateway Logistics Park has appointed Oliver Treneman as its new Park Development Director after Graeme Clarke announced that he is retiring. Oliver started work at the UK’s largest logistics hub last week bringing with him more than 20 years of experience in marketing and developing industrial real estate in China.
In his previous role, Oliver was Managing Director and Country Head for The Redwood Group, a specialised logistics real estate investment firm, in China and Japan. While in Asia, he became fluent in Mandarin and worked as General Manager for Shanghai Business Park Development Co Ltd and as a Senior Director of Operations for Prologis.
Over the last decade, Oliver has acquired and developed land in over a dozen Chinese cities including Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai. He has overseen build-to-suit developments in China for logistics customers such as DHL and Daimler.
Graeme, retiring as Development Director, was one of the original members of the team put together by DP World in 2007 to develop the DP World London Gateway project. In his role as Implementation Director, he helped pave the way for building Britain’s newest and most technologically advanced deep-sea port.
Over the past three years, Graeme has led the Logistics Park project in his role as Development Director.
