JLL appoints Gilda Perez-Alvarado as Global CEO, Hotels & Hospitality

JLL announced Gilda Perez-Alvarado has been promoted to Global CEO of its Hotels & Hospitality Group to succeed Mark Wynne-Smith, who will continue as Global CEO of Valuation Advisory.  

Previously, Wynne-Smith had dual global leadership of both JLL's Hotels & Hospitality Group and Valuation Advisory business. With over 10 years of building a significant platform for the global hotels sector, Wynne-Smith will now solely focus on the Valuation Advisory business.

Perez-Alvarado will continue to lead the Americas along with her expanded global responsibilities. She will report jointly to JLL's Global CEO of Capital Markets, Richard Bloxam, and Americas Capital Markets CEO, Mark Gibson.

Perez-Alvarado will be responsible for driving global strategy for the overall sector, connecting the business to support cross-regional growth and overseeing the Asset Management and Strategic Advisory business lines. Additionally, Perez-Alvarado will lead ESG initiatives in hospitality, including commitments to diversity & inclusion and sustainability. She will also focus on enhancing the connectivity of the company's Capital Markets teams in the Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific, as global investor interest within the hospitality sector continues to rise.

In September 2018, Perez-Alvarado was named CEO of the Hotels group for the Americas. She will continue leading and driving strategy in the Americas region, the Global Hotel Desk and cross-border assignments in partnership with JLL's regional hotel specialists and the International Capital team.

Most recently, she led international marketing efforts for some of the most iconic hotel assets, including the St. Regis New York, Montage Beverly Hills, Four Seasons Toronto, InterContinental New York Barclay, The Standard High Line and Mandarin Oriental Boston.
