About Graeme Staunton
I manage large-scale workplace and real estate projects for a global investment firm, overseeing the delivery of offices across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.My role spans the full lifecycle of projects—from refreshing existing offices and relocating within cities to establishing new offices in new markets. Beyond design and construction, I focus on identifying and delivering buildings that meet exceptionally high standards for hospitality, resilience, redundancy, and compliance. In an environment where markets are live and connectivity is critical, reliability, uptime, and performance are central to every decision.Since joining the firm full-time in 2023, following two years advising the organization, I have led the delivery of highly sophisticated office projects across a broad global portfolio, managing multiple parallel projects with timelines typically ranging from six to eighteen months.I bring over 30 years of international experience across six continents, with projects delivered in major financial and commercial centers including cities across the North, Central and South America, the U.K. and Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific—with upcoming work extending into New Zealand. My background spans financial services corporate interiors, large-scale hospitality developments, flagship retail environments for global technology brands, complex pharmaceutical and laboratory facilities, global brand and exhibition builds, and industrial projects within active energy operations.This breadth of experience allows me to combine strategic judgment with practical execution—applying lean principles, strong governance, and disciplined delivery to complex projects in high-reliability environments.
