Harvey Lindsay Commercial Real Estate President Robert M. King will add chairman of the board to his responsibilities, and Robert M. Beasley Jr. is now executive vice president for brokerage services, the Norfolk real estate firm announced Monday.

King is taking over the role from Harvey Lindsay Jr., who died on April 19. He has been president since December 2019.

Beasley will lead the company’s sales and leasing team. He succeeds Craig Cope, who is leaving the company on June 30.

“We thank Craig Cope for his contributions to the company, and we wish him well in his new endeavors,” Beasley said in a statement. “Bob and I are very excited about our new leadership roles at HLCRE, and we are dedicated to honoring the memory of Harvey by continuing to grow the company based on the integrity and values he instilled in us.”

Beasley has been with the firm for more than 36 years and was previously senior vice president for industrial leasing and sales. In his new role, he will oversee all incoming producing divisions, including sales and leasing, property management, asset management and new business initiatives.
