JLL has appointed James Gregory as chief financial officer following the promotion of Richard Howling to UK chief operating officer.
Gregory joins from technology services provider Xchanging, which was acquired by Computer Sciences Corporation in May 2016.
Chris Ireland, JLL UK chief executive, said: “James brings a wealth of significant financial, commercial and corporate M&A experience working across Europe to the role.”
At Xchanging, Gregory worked in Frankfurt and Milan for two years within a substantial financial services business, primarily formed as joint ventures with two global investment institutions. He then joined the London-based global insurance services business, partnering with Lloyd’s of London, working closely with the sales team and helping the progression of services through enhanced technology.
