Industry veteran continues firm’s deep Phoenix tenant representation roots
PHOENIX, (September 11, 2024) – The Phoenix office of JLL today announced it has promoted Ryan Bartos to market lead of its Tenant Rep Advisory Group. In his new role, Bartos oversees all brokerage activity for the company’s Phoenix tenant representation office team.
“Ryan has been a key member of the JLL team since joining our firm more than seven years ago,” said JLL Executive Managing Director Pat Williams. “He is a natural leader and we are confident in his ability to continue to drive our tenant rep success in Arizona.”
The Phoenix office of JLL was formed 25 years ago when it purchased The Staubach Company, which at the time ranked as Phoenix’s top tenant representation brokerage. Since then, JLL has combined its global platform with local industry experts to become a full-service provider spanning the leasing, investment, and management sectors, with a mission to shape the future of commercial real estate.
“JLL’s Phoenix tenant representation roots run deep,” said Bartos. “We have a talented team who provides companies with the insight and strategies they need to grow and thrive. This not only supports our JLL clients but also the community at large by creating new jobs and new avenues of economic growth. I am proud to continue that tradition.”
Bartos began his commercial real estate career in 2009 as an Associate Broker in the Office Properties Division of Cushman & Wakefield. He moved to JLL in 2016, advancing from Executive Vice President to Senior Managing Director, where he supports high-growth tenants locally, nationally, and globally in every stage of the office real estate process.
Across his career, Bartos has completed over 15 million square feet of lease transactions, totaling over $1 billion in lease consideration.
Bartos was honored as the 2022 NAIOP Arizona Tenant Rep Broker of the Year and, in late 2023, completed metro Phoenix’s largest office lease of the year, establishing a 136,194-square-foot inbound contact center for Peckham Inc. that would offer up to 1,000 jobs.
Bartos will be headquartered in the JLL Phoenix office at 4300 E. Camelback Rd.
In Phoenix, JLL is a market leader employing more than 550 of the region’s most recognized industry experts offering office, industrial, retail, healthcare and data center brokerage, tenant representation, facility and investment management, capital markets, multifamily investments and development services, and related services within the real estate leasing, investment and management process. In 2023, the Phoenix team completed more than 120 million square feet in lease and sale transactions, with a total transaction volume of more than $1.1 billion, and directed $67 million in project management across 63 projects.
