Eshel Pesti has assumed the position of the new CEO of G City Europe. Or Ackerman will be the new Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO). 


Eshel, who has been with the company for 15 years was formerly CEO of G City’s Russian business operations. He is an experienced commercial leader associated with the company’s success for the last dozen years. 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.

In the second change, Or Ackerman took over as Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Mr. Ackerman held the position of Director of Capital Markets at G City. He is a qualified CPA accountant, holds an MBA with a specialization in financial management and previously worked at Ernst and Young. 

G City Europe’s leadership structure evolved to align the current company’s structure with the changing business model following the divestment program and associated restructuring. Currently, the activities of the company, whose portfolio includes 14 properties with a total market value of €1.9 billion, concentrate mainly on retail properties and apartments for rent with a particular focus on Warsaw and Prague.
