Battersea Power Station hires Donagh O’Sullivan as chief executive
Battersea Power Station Development Company, the Malaysian owned operator and developer of London’s Battersea Power Station, has appointed Donagh O’Sullivan as chief executive.
Due to take up the position on 18 June, he will lead the continued development of the former industrial brownfield site following its earlier transformation into a new shopping, leisure, commercial and residential destination for London.
O’Sullivan will also oversee the operation of the growing riverside neighbourhood, which is home to over 140 shops, bars and restaurants, and more than 2,500 residents, as well as leisure venues and office space including Apple’s new 500,000 square foot UK headquarters.
It also includes the newly launched 50 Electric Boulevard, a 200,000 square foot state-of-the-art office building designed by Foster + Partners.
O’Sullivan has spent the majority of his career working with Galliard Homes where he joined the business in 2001 and served as chief executive from 2017 to 2022.
Tan Sri Jagan Sabapathy, chairman of Battersea Power Station Project Holding Company, said: “Don’s exceptional leadership skills, strategic insights and deep industry knowledge make him the ideal choice to lead BPSDC.
“Don joins us as we embark on the next phase of development at Battersea Power Station and as we strengthen the performance of our assets under management including the iconic Grade II listed Power Station.
“I am confident that Don together with the wonderful team that we have at BPSDC, will take us to the next level of achievement and success.”
