Mike McCurdy, who has spent the last nine years
heading up JLL’s Philadelphia office, has jumped to Cushman & Wakefield and
will serve in a similar leadership capacity.
The new appointment comes as John Derham leaves Cushman & Wakefield
effective March 28, according to a statement released by Cushman &
Wakefield. Derham spent two decades with the commercial real estate brokerage
and 16 of those years were leading its Philadelphia operations.
McCurdy joined JLL when the firm had taken a lower
profile and was charged with re-establishing its local presence. It appears
that he will arrive at Cushman & Wakefield with a similar mission. He will
assume the title of managing principal and oversee a territory that includes
Philadelphia and its region, the central part of Pennsylvania as well as South
Jersey.
Leadership changes at Philadelphia’s large commercial
real estate firms don’t happen too often. A more recent example took place in
late 2014 when Steve J. Cousart, a real estate veteran with more
than three decades of experience, was named to lead the Philadelphia-area
operations of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank. He replaced Bob Clements, who retired. Cousart joined NGKF
from the local office CBRE Inc.
