Daniel Labbad of Lend Lease appointed Chairman of UK Green Building Council

Daniel Labbad, CEO - Europe, Lend Lease, will today succeed Peter Rogers as chairman of the UK Green Building Council.

He takes up the position at a crucial time for the UK-Green Building Council as all political parties look towards the construction and property sector to deliver on sustainability targets. The UK-GBC is urging the industry to rise to the challenge by cutting CO2 emissions from the built environment by 50% in the next ten years.

Lend Lease is a founder member of the UK-GBC and Labbad has been on the advisory board since the launch of the organisation in 2007. Born in Sydney, Dan joined Lend Lease in 1997 as a site engineer. After holding various roles around the group globally in construction, development and within the corporate team, Dan undertook a secondment in 2001 to establish the Hornery Institute, a non-profit organisation established by the employees and shareholders of Lend Lease in 2001 to focus on community development, before returning to Lend Lease in 2004. Dan is currently CEO – Europe, Lend Lease.
