MIAMI-On the heels of naming Mary Jo Eaton as its Florida market leader, CB Richard Ellis is filling a management gap Randy Buddemeyer left when he switched allegiances to Grubb & Ellis in June. CBRE has named Patricia Nooney as its new senior managing director of Institutional Services for Florida.

Nooney will oversee the delivery of brokerage, project management, asset services, and other services to CBRE's property owner clients, including its 37 million-square-foot Florida portfolio. Nooney will also coordinate with CBRE's Capital Markets professionals in delivering debt and equity solutions to investor clients.

“This is a great opportunity to take someone who has pieced together the skill sets we need, and then perfected the use of those skill sets in a smaller market,” Grayson Gill, senior managing director of CBRE Asset Services for the company’s central region, tells GlobeSt.com. “Patty will now use those skills to run a huge operation in Florida on the institutional side.”
