Justin Robinson, CFO, The Dot Group
Based in London, Justin will lead Dot’s global finance team and play a central role in advancing the Group’s financial strategy. His responsibilities will include optimizing capital allocation and providing transactional, operational, and debt financing support, while driving digital advancement across finance and operations to enable the company’s international expansion. In addition, Justin will join Dot’s Advisory Board and Executive leadership team, applying his expertise to further strengthen the Group’s corporate governance framework.
With more than 24 years of finance experience spanning hospitality, real estate, M&A, private equity, family offices, and technology, Justin brings a global perspective shaped across the U.S., Middle East, and Europe. He will leverage this international expertise to expand Dot’s capital markets reach, strengthen investment and banking relationships, and embed innovation at the heart of the Group’s growth strategy.
Justin previously held CFO and senior adviser roles at Apollo Global Management, where he spent nine years working across European hospitality and mixed use Real Estate.
