Cushman & Wakefield has announced new appointments to its Central & Eastern Europe leadership team. The new structure aims to provide the firm’s clients, many of which view CEE as a whole, with a platform to support requirements across the region, while complementing and coordinating activity at a country level in Central Europe as well as Russia and Turkey.


It will also ensure Cushman & Wakefield’s CEE businesses are aligned to capitalize on the increasingly global nature of client requirements and opportunities.

The new CEE service line leaders, drawn from across the firm’s regional footprint, will be responsible for coordinating activity across different countries and departments, are:

  • Zuzana Paciorkiewicz – Co-Head of Asset Services, CEE

  • Radka Novak – Head of Office Agency, CEE
  • Eliza Bingul – Head of Digital & Corporate Communications, CEE
  • Karolina Samczynska-Fislak – Head of Marketing & Bid Management, CEE

Cushman & Wakefield’s CEE region is led by Jonathan Hallett, Head of Central & Eastern Europe. The new members of the leadership team will have oversight of the CEE region in their respective areas of expertise. They will be responsible for responding to clients’ evolving needs and driving change in key, strategic fields, including data strategy and communications.

Jonathan Hallett, Head of Central & Eastern Europe at Cushman & Wakefield, said: “I am delighted to welcome these eight accomplished individuals to their new CEE Leadership roles. They make a positive and significant contribution to the overall diversity of our regional team in terms of gender, geography, cultural background, experience and skills. Diversity leads to innovation and higher client satisfaction. Empowering people is in our culture and these appointments reflect inclusion within our business across the EMEA region.”
