“With the growing and evolving San Diego commercial real estate construction industry, we were looking for ways to better service our clients and the region,” said Gilliland in the release, who will now serve as Senior Vice President of JLL, overseeing the firm's Project and Development Services business in San Diego. “Joining JLL is the best way for us to continue to grow within a culture that fits our team, for our employees to develop their careers, and for us to be able to provide the best services to our clients with the firm’s full-service platform offering multiple services across a wide range of property types.”
“The expansion of JLL’s Project and Development Services in San Diego and throughout the Southwest has been a priority of the firm the past several months as the region’s commercial real estate landscape has continued to evolve through development, redevelopment and expansion of industries including life science, lab, industrial and multifamily, to name a few,” added Peter Belisle in the release, Market Director for JLL’s Southwest Region. “From this point on, our clients will be able to tap a more robust platform of project and development services.
