Blue Owl Capital Hires Robert Campkin as Part of European Net Lease Strategy

Robert previously served in a range of roles across investment management, capital markets and corporate real estate firms including Swiss-Asia, Pepper Financial Services Group, JLL and Cushman & Wakefield.   

Marc Zahr, Global Head of Real Assets at Blue Owl said, "Rob built one of the industry's most credible and recognizable corporate capital markets teams and will bring with him an extensive network of global corporate client relationships. Supported by our market-leading US net lease business, Rob's disciplined approach to real estate will be highly value-additive to our investors and corporate counterparties. He will serve as an integral component as we build out the European net lease platform adding to the recent hires Blue Owl has made in the market over the past year."   

Robert Campkin said, "Having known Marc and his team for years, I am consistently impressed with the success of Blue Owl's net lease business which maintains a market-leading presence in the US and one of the best track-records in triple net real estate investing. I am honored to build on this foundation and leverage my extensive experience and relationships to emulate Blue Owl's North American success in the European market. I look forward to working closely with Marc as well as my European-based colleagues Jamie Rotchford and Alex Solomon."

Blue Owl's Net Lease investment strategy focuses on acquiring single-tenant, free-standing properties primarily across the industrial, healthcare, essential retail, and data center sectors that are net-leased, long-term, to investment grade and creditworthy tenants. This combination seeks to create predictable cash flow from long-term rents on mission-critical properties in our effort to provide investors with a combination of current income and appreciation, with limited downside risk.
