The AIM-traded firm said Lowery was joining its executive committee, and would report to its founder and CEO Mark Furness.
He would lead the growth of its UK and Europe business, as the company looked to scale its operations globally.
Lowery was joining the firm from British Land, where he co-founded its flexible workspace offering Storey.
Essensys said he built Storey from concept to an operating flexible workspace brand, scaling it over five years across multiple locations.
It added that more broadly, Lowery had experience working across Europe and in the United Arab Emirates.
“James' experience of launching, scaling, and operating British Land's flex workspace offering Storey will be a huge asset to Essensys,” said Mark Furness.
“His skill set is unique, having bridged the gap between landlord and flex space provider at a leading UK property company.”
Furness said Lowery “understands the challenges” of Essensys’ customers, and the role technology plays.
“I am excited to have James join to lead our UK and Europe business.
“His experience will be invaluable to both our customers and our business as we continue to scale globally.”
James Lowery added that the “effective utilisation” of technology was one of the biggest challenges workspace owners and operators faced when trying to meet the evolving needs of customers.
“I believe Essensys is uniquely positioned to drive forward the industry's digital transformation.
“A complete, secure and scalable platform, a great team and clear growth plan, makes me incredibly excited about the future.”
