| Tell us about your story. How did you come to Cushman & Wakefield? What do you do? |
| I was the Hyperion Financial Management Architect at The Hackett Group who was assigned at DTZ back in May 2014 when the company demerge from UGL. I was about the roll-off from the project when TPG acquired DTZ. Then I got extended few more times because of the Cassidy Turley and Cushman and Wakefield acquisition. After the integration of Cushman and I was about to roll-off, I was asked if I want to join the company. I worked with many great people at DTZ / Cushman for 3+ years so when the opportunity of working for the company was offered to me, I didn’t hesitate and joined a talented group of people both on the Finance and GTS side. |
| Why do you work here at Cushman & Wakefield and not somewhere else? |
| I am still working at Cushman & Wakefield because of the people. We have great employees who are passionate on what they do which is very positive. |
| Cushman & Wakefield has one of the most interesting growth stories in our industry. How has our recent momentum made an impact on your role or created opportunities for you? |
| The growth of the company with all the acquisitions gave more demand to the system I am managing. My team and I are prepare to any changes in the reporting requirements needed for External and Management reporting which are the result of this continuous growth. |
| What solution, achievement, or moment is the best example of your passion while either working at Cushman & Wakefield or in your personal life, or both? |
| My passion on my personal life is to share my achievements to people in need. My family and I sponsored medical mission about 3 times in the past few years in the Philippines. My family and I are active in promoting two foundations in the Philippines. One of the foundations is for street children where they house, educate and rehabilitate young kids so they can be turned around and be normal part of the society. The other foundation is for abuse kids. At my work, both in the industry and consulting, I always looked out for the younger team members and trained them. I always believe in sharing what I know and always looking out for my team. For me, it is all about people and helping each other. |
