Tracing its roots to the 18th century establishment of Jones Lang Wootton in London and the later founding of LaSalle Partners in Chicago in 1968, the modern JLL was formed through the merger of these two firms in 1999. Since then, the firm has grown through both organic expansion and targeted acquisitions, enhancing its ability to serve clients across commercial real estate sectors, including office, industrial, retail, residential and hospitality.
Headquartered in Chicago, JLL operates in more than 80 countries across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific region. Its extensive global network of offices and research centers enables the firm to deliver on-the-ground insights and cross-border capabilities for multinational corporations, institutional investors and government entities. JLL also continues to invest in technology-driven solutions, digital platforms and sustainable practices to support clients’ evolving real estate needs.
Since June 2016, Christian Ulbrich has served as President and Chief Executive Officer of JLL, supported by a seasoned management team overseeing the firm’s major business lines and geographies. Under their leadership, JLL emphasizes a client-focused culture, innovation in service delivery and a commitment to environmental, social and governance principles in the real estate industry.
