DALLAS-Effective July 1, Michael J. Dee, will take the position of senior vice president, national director of retail of Grubb & Ellis’ transaction services division. Dee, 48, has nearly 20 years of retail real estate experience.

“Michael brings the right combination of retail, management and brokerage experience to this position,” says Bob Osbrink, president of Grubb & Ellis’ transaction services division. Osbrink says retail has become a significant component to Grubb & Ellis’ overall growth strategy, and for that reason, the company wanted to bring in someone with a national perspective. “Michael is that person,” he says.

Most recently, Dee served as director of real estate for Cottonwood Financial. Previously he spent three years as development manager of Blockbuster Inc. and another year as director of store development at Fleming Co.
