LOS ANGELES—CBRE Group said Thursday it had promoted company veteran Bill Concannon to the position of global group president, Global Workplace Solutions. Concannon, who had held the title of GWS CEO since September 2015, when CBRE expanded the platform with its $1.48-billion acquisition of Johnson Controls Inc.’s occupier outsourcing business, is one of three senior executives with the global group president title.

Also holding the title of global group president are Cal Frese and Mike Lafitte, who are in charge of geographies and services business lines, respectively. The designation is reserved for CBRE’s most senior leaders with global, market-facing responsibilities, who have made significant contributions to the success of the company and its clients across the entire enterprise.
