(HOUSTON) – Hines, the global real estate investment manager, announced today that Adam Hines, a grandson of the founder, has been promoted to senior managing director and will serve as chief of staff within the firm’s Office of the CEO. He will report to Co-CEOs Jeff Hines and Laura Hines-Pierce in this newly created role.
“Adam is an accomplished strategist, effective manager, and trusted advisor,” said Jeff Hines, Chairman and Co-CEO. “In this new role, he will focus on advancing several of our high-level strategic priorities, including enhancing Hines' client engagement strategies to position the firm for future growth.”
Adam joined Hines in 2017 in the firm’s London office to focus on student housing and residential acquisitions. In 2020, he moved back to the global headquarters in Houston and played a pivotal role in securing $600 million of capital through the company’s bond and debt offerings.
Most recently, Adam served as chief growth officer of the investment management platform, overseeing efforts to broaden engagement with high-net-worth investors and family offices. He was instrumental in creating Hines Private Wealth Solutions and recruiting its leader, Paul Ferraro, formerly of Carlyle.
Adam Hines graduated with a BA in economics from Williams College. Then he earned dual advanced degrees from Northwestern University—an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management and an MS in design innovation from the Segal Design Institute at the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science.
