Meet Fabio Pagano, General Manger – Property

Early this year we welcomed Fabio Pagano as Oyster’s General Manager – Property.

Bringing 15-years’ property experience to the role, he has a breadth of expertise spanning all aspects of commercial property and fund management for both private and listed entities.

Prior to joining Oyster, Fabio was a Fund Manager for Investore Property, managed by NZX listed Stride Property Group, where he led their $1.2 billion property portfolio, executing more than $250 million in transactions and securing $300 million in capital market raises, predominantly during the volatile Covid-19 period.

Before this he held a number of senior property management roles in Australia. “My property career has been varied and I’ve been exposed to all sides of the industry, as a tenant, an asset manager, and a fund leader,” says Fabio.

“This has given me deep understanding of the factors that build strong, long-lasting tenant-landlord
relationships, and how to translate this into investor value.”

“Oyster puts huge importance on growing strong relationships with its tenants, which is why we are the landlord of choice for many, and this was one of several aspects of the business that resonated with me.

“Holding a competitive position in the leasing market means ensuring our assets meet the needs of our tenants – from location, size, and amenities, right through to sustainability credentials.

“We understand what drives our occupiers and this allows us to actively manage risk, particularly during times of economic volatility, as well as identify growth opportunities for our investors.

“There is significant future value opportunity within the Oyster portfolio and I’m excited to play a key part in unlocking this over the coming years,” says Fabio.

Outside of work, Fabio is passionate about supporting local communities – from local soccer coaching to his recent participation in Auckland City Mission’s Cook-Off in June to help combat food insecurity for the neediest in Auckland.
