During that period, he successfully managed the Russian operations and contributed largely to the successful disposal of the Russian portfolio. He will concentrate on the operational and financial performance of G City Europe’s core assets in Poland and the long-term exit from the Czech Republic. Eshel Pesti in his new role will succeed Ryan Lee, who has been with the company since 2015.
