"Jack's career record of client satisfaction, his high productivity and his ongoing commitment to the success of Cushman & Wakefield is such that the board of directors would not be complete without the addition of his vision and guidance," says Arthur J. Mirante II, Cushman & Wakefield's president and CEO.

He has spent 13 of his 18 years in the commercial real estate industry at Cushman & Wakefield, active in investment sales and tenant representation.

In another appointment, Susan Pausky, a senior director in the Dallas office, has been named to the newly created national brokerage advisory board. She is one of 17 selected for the board.
