Böhnlein to lead project management for C&W Germany

Jens Böhnlein is to head the project management department of Cushman & Wakefield in Germany as an associate from mid-April.

He joins from Jones Lang LaSalle in Frankfurt where he was principal project manager. Böhnlein is experienced in the office and commercial property markets throughout Germany, having had a focus on corporate accounts. As a designated LEED-accredited professional he worked on several property certifications in Germany.

Martin Bruehl, managing partner of Cushman & Wakefield in Germany, underlined the importance of project management to international companies: 'The client has a single point of contact who is responsible for the company’s construction activity or technical due diligence processes throughout Europe. This means that over every phase of the project, deadlines, cost control and quality are assured - even when they are not acting within their domestic market.'

Globally, Cushman & Wakefield’s 1,600 project managers have completed 4,500 projects; fit out, conversion and due diligence (about 3,300 projects in EMEA) involving a total of some 22 million m² of property. Of this 285,000 m² was in EMEA.
