CBRE has restructured the leadership of its office leasing businesses in NSW, the ACT and Queensland as it continues to strengthen its Advisory & Transaction Services platform in Pacific.
Under the restructure, John Walklate - who presently leads CBRE’s office leasing team in Queensland - will relocate to Sydney in 2017 to assume the leadership of CBRE’s Advisory & Transaction Services – Office businesses in NSW and the ACT.
Andrew Tracey, the Regional Director of CBRE’s Advisory & Transaction Services – Office business, said; “John has been a great leader for our Queensland business and has been instrumental in growing the Brisbane office leasing team to its current market leading position. In his new role, he will work closely with the existing leaders of the NSW and ACT teams to further enhance these businesses and ensure we are delivering the highest level of service and support to our clients.”
In turn, Chris Butters has assumed the leadership of the Queensland office leasing team while Mark Curtain has taken on a new role as Regional Director – Major Projects to help drive growth in CBRE’s national development capability.
“Chris brings great energy and passion to everything he is involved in. His market knowledge and strategic client focus, alongside Mark’s deep experience and market leading position, will ensure our business remains the best leasing team in Brisbane,” Mr Tracey said.
“Mark will meanwhile have a primary focus on innovation, delivering major projects and driving advantage for our clients.”
