Based in Paris, Honein will join LaSalle’s global management committee as part of his new role, which takes effect on 30 November.
Honein has been with LaSalle and JLL for more than 21 years. He was appointed head of LaSalle’s EMEA investor relations in April 2021 and has in that role served as a leader both within the IR group and for the firm. He has driven large capital raises and maintained relationships with key clients in the EMEA region with a focus on the Middle East.
Honein previously worked with LaSalle’s acquisitions team, sourcing investments opportunities and executing acquisitions in France on behalf of the firm’s strategic partnerships.
Gaur joined LaSalle in 2016 to co-lead the global capital raising team and then assumed the global head role in January 2021.
