Growthpoint Properties Limited, a stalwart in South Africa’s corporate real estate sector, has announced a significant shakeup in its leadership. In a surprising move, Olive Chauke, the esteemed Executive Director of Human Resources, has tendered her resignation with immediate effect. The decision marks the end of a six-year tenure that saw her steer the company through various challenges and triumphs.

Chauke’s departure was made official through a statement released by Growthpoint on October 9, 2023. According to the announcement, Chauke will continue to serve the company during her notice period, which extends until March 31, 2024. This period will undoubtedly be crucial for the company, as it navigates through the transition and prepares for the future.
