About Me
Grace joined the Colliers Occupier Services team in 2019 in the Montreal office. As an Account Associate, Grace supports her team in setting up mandates with multi-national corporations and enabling clients to efficiently manage their portfolios worldwide.
Most recently, Grace has worked with PepsiCo in setting up their global partnership with Colliers, which was established in 2020. Specifically, Grace has worked with her team to manage the global account setup and oversaw the integration of the PepsiCo portfolio, consisting of over 3,000 leases, into Colliers’ databases, namely WorkTrac and Colliers360. Grace was instrumental in creating a process whereby PepsiCo Global Real Estate (PGRE) could define and track their cost savings and cost avoidance achievements across all of their real estate transactions globally. Grace continues to work alongside PGRE to continuously monitor their assets and develop strategies that will optimize PepsiCo’s real estate portfolio given their long-term business objectives and current global market conditions.
Grace’s responsibilities also include supporting her team with portfolio management, transaction management and financial modelling for local, national and global projects. Since joining Colliers, Grace has worked with several clients across a wide variety of industries and asset classes. In 2019, Grace created financial models for the relocation and consolidation of Groupe CH’s head office in downtown Montreal. With the onset of COVID-19, Grace and her team were able to sublease one of Groupe CH’s floors to Apple, generating a 96% recovery for Groupe CH. In 2021, Grace assisted in generating $350,000 USD in savings for Orange Business Services across their office and network locations in Latin America. In terms of industrial assets, Grace has worked alongside Magna International in the United States to develop build-to-suit projects in markets with low vacancy due to COVID-19.
Grace continues to work with her team to develop processes that are customized to their clients’ business models and that are aligned with their future business objectives.
