He has also been pivotal in commissioning master plans that have led to significant investment into the Golden Mile on the A4 and around Heathrow Airport.
Be Living's Deputy chief executive, Andrew Telfer, said: "Brendon is a brilliant addition to our team, bringing an impressive track record of taking major developments from concept stage through to reality. Brendon's insight in getting complex, multi-phase regenerations through planning and onto site will be invaluable, helping us turn brownfield sites into thriving new communities.
"His breadth of knowledge of housing and unlocking opportunities, alongside that of Ric Blakeway, gives us high-level input to take forward our plans to create new communities that allow thousands of people to buy and rent a Be home across London."
Mr Walsh said: "I'm proud of what I helped achieve at Hounslow in the last five years and feel this is the right time to accept a new challenge. This is a fantastic opportunity to play a part in Be Living's growth by unlocking the potential they have to deliver a significant quantity of homes."
