​Hong Kong, December 4 2013 – CBRE today announced that Phil Rowland has been promoted to Executive Managing Director, Global Corporate Services, Asia Pacific, and joins the firm’s Asia Pacific Strategic Group, the executive team responsible for formulating and implementing the company’s APAC business strategy.

Mr. Rowland has led CBRE’s Global Corporate Services (GCS) division in Asia for the past seven years, based in the Hong Kong office. Before relocating to Asia, he specialized in corporate real estate management and consultancy for our GCS team in New York City. Combined with his previous experience at organizations such as EY (formerly Ernst & Young), Phil has been advising clients on a broad range of real estate occupancy matters for more than 15 years throughout Asia, the US and Europe.

Rob Blain, CEO & Chairman, CBRE Asia Pacific, said the promotion better positions the firm to serve its local, regional and global clients, particularly in the area of corporate real estate outsourcing.

“Phil’s extensive track record, strong client relationships and knowledge of the outsourcing business enables us to drive greater collaboration across the region and more effectively serve our regional and global clients,” said Mr. Blain.

Bill Concannon, CEO of the firm’s Global Corporate Services division, added, “Our outsourcing business in APAC has experienced significant growth in recent years. Thanks in large part to Phil’s leadership, we have tripled our revenue base from 2008, deepened our capability in project and facilities management, and expanded our client base to more than 60 clients. Phil’s position on our regional management board will enable us to further capitalize on this growth.”

CBRE’s Global Corporate Services team comprises approximately 2,800 professionals, serving over 60 corporate clients across Asia Pacific. The division focuses on delivering a range of services to occupier clients—including Occupier Consulting, Portfolio Services, Transaction Management, Project Management, Facilities Management, Workplace Strategy and Sustainability—from major hubs in Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, New Zealand and Singapore. 

CBRE was ranked the world's fourth largest outsourcing services provider globally in 2013 according to the International Association of Outsourcing Professionals' (IAOP) Global Outsourcing 100 for 2013.
