Tom Edwards-Moss has been appointed as the chief financial officer (CFO) designate at flexible workspaces operator, Workspace Group.

He will replace Dave Benson, who informed the board of its intention to step down from the role in August.

Edwards-Moss has served as chief executive at Hibernia since 2022, after joining the business as CFO in 2014, and was appointed CFO at Hibernia REIT following the internalisation of the investment managed in 2015.

Prior to Hibernia, he spent nearly nine years at Credit Suisse in the UK and Ireland investment banking team.

Edwards-Moss is expected to join Workspace following completion of a notice period at Hibernia, while Benson will remain in post until he starts.

Chair at Workspace, Duncan Owen, said: "We are delighted to welcome Tom as our next CFO following a rigorous recruitment process. With extensive experience in financial leadership, Tom is ideally placed to take on the role. The board and I look forward to working with Tom as Workspace continues to execute its strategy with a focus on delivering attractive income-led shareholder returns."

Edwards-Moss added: "I am looking forward to joining the board of Workspace as the new CFO. Workspace has a fantastic portfolio and a long history in the flexible workspace market, with deep roots in supporting London's creative and innovative SMEs."
