SEATTLE-Despite recent questions surrounding Grubb & Ellis’ furloughs during its “review process” on whether to sell or merge the firm, as GlobeSt.com previously reported, leading industry executives still are still joining the firm. The latest was in the Seattle office, where veteran James Keating joined as SVP of the office group.
Bob Dean, executive vice president and regional managing director, of the Pacific Northwest points out that Keating “has established himself as one of the top office professionals in the Pacific Northwest and brings many client relationships to our firm, as well as a reputation for providing solutions customized to fit their needs.”
With 25 years of experience in tenant representation, Keating returns to Grubb & Ellis after spending more than three years as a senior vice president with Jones Lang LaSalle. During that time, he was recognized as the top producer of the company’s Seattle office in 2009 and a top achiever nationally in 2010.
He began his career with Grubb & Ellis in 1986 and ultimately rose to the title of senior vice president. While at Grubb & Ellis, Keating was recognized as a top producer of the Seattle office 11 times and a member of Grubb & Ellis’ Circle of Excellence seven times.
Clients he has represented include Ernst & Young LLP, MetLife Inc., American Seafoods Group LLC and Electric Lightwave.
