Pierre Nolte, CEO Germany at Cushman & Wakefield, on the development of Cushman & Wakefield in Germany: "We can also look back on a positive year in 2025 for our German business. We made a significant contribution to the increase in revenue in the EMEA region. Germany is of outstanding importance to Cushman & Wakefield due to its significant growth potential. With numerous new hires, the expansion of our business areas and the filling of several management positions in the leasing and capital markets sector, we have created a stable foundation and are in an excellent starting position.‘
Nolte continues: ’With the stabilisation of the interest rate environment and a noticeable, moderate upturn in market activity, we see clear signs of the beginning of the next upswing. In 2026, we will create around 100 additional jobs and further expand our regional presence with new offices. Now is the right time to strengthen our platform in a targeted manner and gain market share for the next phase of the cycle. We therefore consider ourselves to be very well positioned for 2026 and beyond."
