Savills WA's Paul Craig to take on national role

From April 2016, Paul Craig currently managing director for Western Australia, will be Savills Australia & New Zealand chief executive.

Paul McLean will retain his responsibilities for Queensland and New Zealand

Robert McKellar, CEO Savills Asia Pacific said Savills had undertaken a regional review of its Asia Pacific management structure, including succession planning, with a view to strengthening and expanding the executive management platform.

“The business under Paul McLean's leadership has trebled in size in Australia and New Zealand - a period of continuous growth, expansion, and improved profitability, and Savills is indebted to his hard work, vision, loyalty and leadership during this time," Robert McKellar said.

“Paul Craig has over the past 15 years built a very successful West Australian business and has been a major contributor to our Capital Markets capability both domestically and internationally, having held the position as head of Australian Cross Border Capital Markets for the past 8 years.

"Paul will bring renewed energy and vigour to the role and will continue to build on the successes of the recently expanded executive management team."
