JLL wins two awards at the REIV Commercial & Industrial Marketing awards for an iconic Melbourne asset

MELBOURNE, 17 September 2021 – Global property services firm, JLL has been recognised at the annual REIV Commercial & Industrial Marketing Awards for Excellence held as a virtual event yesterday.

The REIV Commercial & Industrial Marketing Awards recognise, reward, and celebrate excellence in commercial and industrial advertising, marketing and promotion across commercial sales and leasing campaigns. 

JLL was recognised in two categories:

• Best Campaign by a Large Agency | Campaign: Eureka Skydeck
• Best sales campaign for a Specialised Property | Campaign: Eureka Skydeck

JLL’s Capital Markets team led by Executive Director, Josh Rutman ran a sales campaign in February this year for a truly unique Melbourne investment opportunity - Levels 88-89 and Part Ground Floor, 7 Riverside Quay, Southbank - Eureka Tower.

JLL’s Executive Director of Capital Markets - (Victoria), Josh Rutman said, “As agents, we are seldom given opportunities to act on transactions for truly iconic pieces of real estate that resonate with both property professionals and the broader Australian community.”

“We were therefore honoured and humbled to be given the opportunity to market the top two floors of arguably the most recognised high-rise building, and work on a marketing strategy that would position the asset as a unique investment proposition.”

“The final record-breaking result is testament to the creativity and passion of the entire marketing and agency team at JLL who went above and beyond in all facets of their roles, and we were delighted to deliver such an outstanding outcome for our valued client,” Mr Rutman said.

JLL’s Managing Director - (Victoria), Craig Shute said, “The JLL Capital Markets team has established itself as a household name for both private and institutional clients here in Melbourne. Given the commercial property sector’s resilience since the COVID-19 restrictions of last year, it is a top priority of our leadership to provide a multi-disciplined and customer-centric agency offering.”

“This industry recognition is a testament to the strength of our team and the continued faith our clients place in our platform and capabilities. Having recently grown our capital markets team, these awards complement our market-leading sales business headed by Josh Rutman and as a company, we pride ourselves on working with our clients to truly understand their needs,” said Mr Shute.
