Chief executive of Segro, David Sleath had a baptism of fire when he joined the property industry after 17 years as an accountant.
Initially working under the wing of the late Ian Coull as finance director, the company sold its US business at the top of the market before Segro came crashing down to earth as it had to launch a rescue rights issue following the global financial crisis.
Now the company has been turned around to be a pure play logistics company and it is at the forefront of the property industry and online retailing.
In an interview with EG’s head of news and finance, David Hatcher at Hogan Lovells’ headquarters at a Profile networking event Sleath looked back on the highs and lows of his career and talked about how he envisages the next stage of the company’s evolution.
