JLL hires digital media guru as Central Europe leader

JLL has appointed Sabine Eckhardt as chief executive of its Central Europe branch.

Exchardt, who joins in May from European media firm ProSiebenSat. 1 Media SE, will help drive continued growth and digital transformation of the real estate agency. She will also join JLL’s EMEA strategy board.

Eckhardt was executive board member at ProSiebenSat. 1 Media SE until April 2019, where she was responsible for sales and marketing. Prior to her board appointment, she spent 13 years as managing director in various areas of the media group, where she was responsible for TV and digital advertising sales, new customer business, merchandising and the music business.

Guy Grainger, chief executive of JLL EMEA, said: “With Sabine Eckhardt we have been able to attract an outstanding leader from outside the real estate industry for the JLL executive position in Central Europe. Her experience as a leader in the digitally driven media industry will undoubtedly make our own client solutions more dynamic.

“We welcome her fresh ideas and excellent contacts in the German economy, which will open many doors for us and give the positioning of JLL in Germany a new profile in every respect.”
