NEW YORK CITY- Newmark Knight Frank has tapped real estate veteran Sam Buckley for the appointment of Executive Vice President of New York Brokerage Services to oversee strategic direction, performance and goals for the firm's Manhattan Midtown Headquarters and Downtown offices. In the new role, Buckley is responsible for the operational management and development of NKF brokerage, collaborating with the company's professionals and executive leadership team.

"Sam is a highly respected leader and market expert," said Newmark Chief Revenue Officer and East Region Market Leader Lou Alvarado in a prepared statement. "His appointed position fulfills an essential role in New York brokerage to foster connections between all service lines as NKF continues to scale company growth."

With 30 years of industry experience, Sam most recently served as the senior vice president of leasing in the Manhattan headquarters of RXR Realty, where he was responsible for managing leasing activity for multiple ground-up, mixed-use developments located across the New York metropolitan area. His background includes client relationship development, specialty and trophy leasing, brokerage recruitment and office management.

 "Our New York operation will benefit significantly from Sam's extensive industry background, which is balanced between landlord and tenant representation, providing an ideal perspective for his role at NKF," said NKF Chief Administrative Officer Alison Lewis in a prepared statement, who will work with Buckley on oversight of NKF brokerage business lines and operations.

 "I am thrilled to be part of NKF's entrepreneurial and collaborative culture and look forward to leveraging this culture and spirit to advance our client services here in New York City," Buckley said.
