JLL Makes A Roster Move
JLL has named Mark Chambers as EVP, hiring him from Cushman & Wakefield to serve the growing office tower market segment. Mark has 21 years in the biz, and has facilitated more than 10M SF of leasing and nearly $500M in sales over his career. Mark tells us the move came down to a chance to grow the brand and "utilize the unmatched platform offered by JLL."
His new role will involve more input and involvement in the direction and growth of the Vancouver office. On the office leasing front, Mark points to the tech sector as the leading growth area, although other user groups like law firms are seeing the new build cycle as an opportunity to re-brand and attract young talent. (Speaking of Joan Rivers in our first story, sometimes a little cosmetic surgery is the best option.) Pictured: Pacific Centre, which law firm Miller Thomson will be calling home.
