Anthony’s passion for sustainability led him to pioneer the JLL office move in Shanghai in 2017, where it achieved the world’s first platinum ratings for both LEED v4 and WELL v1, which are the highest standards of building certification currently available globally. This set the benchmark for other award-winning JLL offices in India, Hong Kong and Singapore.
Prior to that, he was based in Hong Kong for 13 years, holding a variety of leadership positions across the business.
After studying biology at London University, where he graduated with Honors in 1987, he took a job in the city with real estate company De Groot Collis. He joined JLL in 1989 and transferred to Hong Kong in 1993.
Anthony writes frequently about major trends affecting real estate markets, proptech and the future of work. He is also a strong advocate for sustainability as well as diversity and inclusion causes. He has featured on panel discussions for high profile organisations including the World Economic Forum, The Milken Institute, and the Asian association for Investors in Non-listed Real Estate Vehicles (ANREV). In his spare time, he keeps active by competing in marathons and triathlons.
