15 Oct, 2009, New York
Cushman & Wakefield today announced that Bruce Mosler, 51, the company's President &
Chief Executive Officer since January 2005, has been appointed Co-Chairman of the Board at the
firm, alongside John C. Cushman III.
In his new role, Mr. Mosler will focus on the firm's global brokerage business, developing major accounts and serving key clients. Mr. Mosler will continue to serve on the firm's Board of Directors.
Cushman & Wakefield's Board of Directors has established a search committee to identify a new Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Mosler will serve as President & Chief Executive Officer until such time as his successor joins the firm. The firm has retained Spencer Stuart to assist with the process.
"In his new responsibility, Bruce will play a critical role in continuing to enhance the Cushman & Wakefield global brand. He is in a unique position to leverage the firm's vast service offering and talent around the world on behalf of clients," stated Mr. Carlo Sant' Albano, Chief Executive Officer of EXOR, Cushman & Wakefield's majority shareholder.
"Bruce has played a critical role as Chief Executive Officer. Under his leadership,
Cushman & Wakefield doubled its revenue from 2005 through 2008. He also enhanced the firm's
global platform by diversifying operations both geographically and by service offering. In
addition, Bruce has been instrumental in realigning the company in response to the difficult
market conditions, and EXOR is committed to supporting Cushman & Wakefield for the long
term," Mr. Sant' Albano added.
"This is the right time to make this move. We have accomplished a number of objectives in
the last five years and have weathered the worst of the economic downturn," said Mr.
Mosler. "This change will allow me to continue to provide strategic direction for the
firm, while working directly with clients and having a direct impact on our brokerage business.
Both EXOR and I believe that in this role I can have the greatest impact and pursue my passion,
interfacing with our major clients," he added.
