Global real estate advisor, CBRE, has announced the appointment of a new head of its Edinburgh office.

Angela Lowe will take up the post from 1 January 2026. Lowe succeeds Mark Little, who will continue with the firm as Head of Building Consultancy and Integrated PJM Scotland.

Lowe has been with CBRE for more than a decade and leads the Office Agency team in Scotland. She brings extensive experience advising occupiers, developers and investors across the country. Lowe will continue her role as Head of Office Leasing while also taking on the responsibilities of head of CBRE’s Edinburgh office.

Angela Lowe, appointed head of Edinburgh, said:

“I’m very pleased to be taking up the role of head of Edinburgh at this important moment for the city and for CBRE."

“Edinburgh continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience and appeal as an international capital city, with strong investor interest, a deep occupier base and a growing pipeline of transformational development. These dynamics present significant opportunities across offices, living, logistics and alternative sectors."

“My focus will be on strengthening CBRE’s presence in the market, supporting clients and helping to unlock the potential of key sites across the city. I look forward to working with our exceptional team to deliver insight and long-term value for our clients.”

With regional offices in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh, CBRE has a large team across Scotland in investment properties, agency, property management, valuation, building consultancy, rating, and planning and development divisions.

Lowe’s appointment in Edinburgh forms part of a series of senior appointments across the UK as CBRE strengthens its regional leadership.

With over 12 years at CBRE, Baugh will continue to lead the Industrial & Logistics, North division and has a proven track record of success.
