Jones Lang LaSalle, the New York-listed commercial property and investment firm, has hired David Green-Morgan as global capital markets research director based in Singapore.

Green-Morgan joins from DTZ, the London-listed real estate advisor, where he was head of research for Asia-Pacific.

When starting his new job in November, Green-Morgan will replace Paul Guest, who moves to LaSalle Investment Management to head up its Asia Pacific Strategy team.

Separately, LaSalle appointed Frank Pörschke as its new chief executive for Germany, effective from 1 January next year. He takes over from Andreas Quint who moves to a Europe, Middle East and Africa role as head of the firm’s corporate finance arm.
