JLL Work Dynamics evolves with dedicated Consumer Goods and Services division

CHICAGO, Feb. 25, 2025 – JLL announced today the formation of the Consumer Goods and Services division within the Work Dynamics Americas organization. Led by Division President Matt Weko, this reorganization reflects a continued and growing focus on retail, consumer products, media and entertainment, professional services and telecommunications organizations.

With more than 25 years of commercial real estate experience and 17 years at JLL, Weko has played a key role in developing JLL strategy holding progressive leadership roles, including Account Director, Regional Account Director and Regional Project Director. He provides executive oversight for a portfolio of about 650 million square feet, offering leadership guidance, strategic vision, and best practices to over 50 global and regional Consumer Goods and Services clients.

“Matt is a creative, collaborative leader with a proven track record of building teams with diverse experiences and versatility to achieve client and business objectives,” said Sanjay Rishi, CEO, Work Dynamics, Americas. “He is a thoughtful leader who has demonstrated his ability to grow the business, build strong relationships with clients, and inspire his teams to deliver their best, every day.”

JLL’s research shows consumers are increasingly seeking higher-quality experiences from the built environment – ones that combine human-centric design with spaces that foster a strong sense of community, belonging and connection. At the same time, consumer products; retail; media and entertainment; telecom and professional services organizations are all under rapid transformation, and leading organizations are taking a closer look at how their real estate portfolios contribute to their profitability and success. These increased expectations necessitate that organizations consult with specialized commercial real estate experts to ensure they are getting the most out of their real estate.

“Organizing JLL’s expertise and skills around specific industries allows our teams to collaborate on common industry processes, technologies, regulations and sustainability ambitions, while leveraging JLL’s strong global platform,” added Weko. “The Consumer Goods and Services division will provide organizations with best-in-class solutions and services, addressing the unique challenges faced by companies in retail, consumer products, media, telecom and professional services industries.”
