Savills has appointed Naďa Kováčiková as Head of Leasing & Business Development in Slovakia as the real estate advisory company expands its operations in the country and develops its wider Central and Eastern European platform.
Kováčiková brings more than 15 years of experience in industrial real estate and development. Before joining Savills, she spent almost 12 years as Commercial Director at VGP Slovakia, where her work covered industrial park development, build-to-suit projects, leasing and sustainability-related initiatives, including BREEAM certification.
Her appointment follows the establishment of Savills’ local Slovak office at the beginning of 2026. The company is looking to increase the range of services provided locally while connecting its Slovak operations with its broader CEE advisory business.
“Slovakia is an important component in delivering seamless advisory services to our clients in the CEE region,” said Stuart Jordan, CEO of Savills CEE. He said the expansion of the local team is intended to support existing clients operating in Slovakia while developing relationships with additional domestic and international companies.
Kováčiková will focus on expanding Savills’ commercial real estate activities in Slovakia across leasing and business development. The company’s services in the market include valuation, property management, building and project management, leasing and investment advisory.
Savills has recently provided technical and environmental due diligence for The Mill in Bratislava and technical due diligence for Twin City C. The company also advised on the fit-out of Renomia’s new offices at Sky Park.
Its Slovak leasing work has included assignments for Medtronic and No Limit, while the advisory team has also been involved with transactions concerning the Blumental mixed-use complex and an Amazon logistics facility.
Savills currently manages approximately 60,000 sqm of commercial property in Slovakia through its property management operation.
“Our ambition is to build a stronger Savills presence in Slovakia and offer clients a full spectrum of commercial real estate services,” said Kováčiková. She added that the company intends to build on transactions and advisory mandates already completed in the country.
Kováčiková graduated from the Faculty of International Relations at the University of Economics in Bratislava and holds an International Relations certificate from the London School of Economics. She has also completed the MBARE real estate programme at the Prague University of Economics and Business.
The appointment forms part of Savills’ broader expansion in CEE, with the Slovak operation intended to provide a local platform for both international clients active across the region and companies operating primarily in the domestic market.
