According to the press release, Ms. Aronson will be focusing on new business development efforts. Before she began her newly appointed role, Ms. Aronson oversaw property management services for JLL’s suburban tri-state markets. She previously worked at LaSalle Partners as a property accountant. She stayed with LaSalle Partners following its merger with Jones Lang Wootton in the late 1990s when the firms combined to form JLL.

“I’m looking forward to building on the solid property management business our team has developed and further expanding our presence in New York and the greater metropolitan area,” Ms. Aronson told Commercial Observer via a spokesman.

Today, JLL employs more than 1,600 real estate professionals in the New York tri-state commercial real estate market. In 2013, this portion of the company arranged capital markets transactions estimated at $2.1 billion. The company has 200 corporate offices worldwide.
