LOS ANGELES-Cresa Partners LLC, the corporate tenant-focused brokerage with 44 North American offices, has made a top-level transition. CEO Kevin Hayes steps down, but will remain an adviser to the board of directors. Boston-based Bill Goade, who had been chairman and managing partner, becomes CEO. Los Angeles-based Jerry Porter, vice chairman since 1998, will serve as chairman.

All of the moves were effective as of Oct. 1. The Cresa executives were not available at press time, but in a released statement, Goade said the firm was created in 1998 to “fill a void that used to exist in the quality of corporate real estate advisory services…[and the firm has] become a leader of our industry in North America.”

Goade has more than 25 years of experience in real estate. In his new role, he will manage the overall operations of Cresa Partners and oversee development and communications.
