letter from the president

The bigger the challenge, the larger the opportunity to grow and to succeed. At JLL, we are in the business of commercial real estate, an industry that is constantly expanding and ever more challenging.  With these challenges, there is also opportunity to go beyond the status quo and create your own definition of success.

If you examine the industry today compared to 50 years ago, you will find that fundamentally it has not changed. However, JLL has changed. We seized the opportunity to change the way we do business in a digital era through the importance of built in technology, and it’s resulted in much success. We stand out and continue to stand out because our business line structure has been created to eliminate unhealthy competition and instead create a knowledge-sharing culture.

We also care about each other, demonstrate strong teamwork, ethics, and excellence. Each JLL broker works with an entrepreneurial mindset, is a team player, and acts as a consultant to the clients they serve.

Our history spans more than 200 years. In that time, we have had continuous global success in growing the business, building our people, and acquiring new talent. Last year, JLL was proudly named to the Fortune 500 list and we continue to strive for more.

We are growing our presence in Canada and looking for five exemplary candidates to join our team.
 
Best of luck,

 
Brett Miller
President, JLL Canada
"JLL presents the perfect combination of platform, brand power and opportunity for growth globally and across Canada"
