Manage and Build Up Wayfair's Real Estate Portfolio in Europe and Asia
"His carefully crafted strategy kept us in lock-step with our growth bringing greatest value to the employees and the work they did.”
"I had the good fortune of hiring Peter to join Wayfair’s Global Real Estate team in 2021 and he’s been an exceptional employee, colleague, and friend during our time at Wayfair. I enthusiastically recommend him to anyone who is considering adding Peter to their team. At Wayfair, Peter was solely responsible for our real estate portfolio and activities in Europe and Asia and effectively managed us through a very dynamic period during which our footprint was contracting and expanding in different regions and across asset classes. Peter has deep real estate expertise, both develops and implements real estate strategies, engages with senior leaders and works alongside operators, and very effectively represented Wayfair’s interests with external parties. For anyone considering Peter for an international role, Peter has a unique ability to drop into new markets and successfully lead real estate projects; at Wayfair he led projects in Germany, Ireland, UK, China, Hong Kong and India – some of which were completely new to Wayfair. In all cases - leasing, construction, subleasing, etc. - Peter was the project lead and managed all engagements internally and externally. He operates very independently and requires minimal oversight; I trust him implicitly.
Beyond real estate, Peter is smart, thoughtful, and a great partner. I have little doubt that he would be successful in new and different roles. I’d be happy to share additional insights with anyone who is lucky enough to be considering Peter for a role on their team."
