CHICAGO—Lee & Associates, the commercial real estate firm, has hired a new managing director for its Illinois office, which also just celebrated its 11th anniversary. Brian Tader, a 16-year industry, will primarily oversee recruitment, operations, broker development and marketing.
“As an accomplished real estate professional, Brian has a strong background in portfolio and asset management as well as industrial development,” says Jeff Janda, a principal at Lee & Associates Illinois. “We're thrilled to have him on board to further promote the Lee brand both regionally and nationally as we continue to grow.”
Before coming on board with Lee, Tader most recently worked with Mokena, IL-based TCB Development. He led the sales and marketing efforts of the office and industrial portfolios as well as the BTS and development work in the I-80 and I-55 corridors. His clients included BP North America, JM Smucker Company, Rent-A-Center, and Crane Composites.
The Illinois office was Lee's first Midwest location and now has 31 brokers. Lee, founded in 1979, has grown to 48 offices nationwide with its most recent additions in Columbia, MD, Charleston, SC, Edison, NJ and Orlando.
