Mr Gabbani moved from Australia to Singapore 10 years ago; since late 2016, he has held the chief financial officer, Asia, role.
Prior to that, the executive was head, Investments & Capital Markets (Asia and Europe).
Outgoing group CEO Steve McCann said both candidates have “demonstrated skills and expertise” which “will bring valuable new perspectives to Lendlease’s global leadership team”.
