JLL‘s agency team has demonstrated a market-leading position for the second year running by claiming the number one spot in EG’s annual radius regional leaderboards for office transactions across London and in the South West region during the first quarter of 2024.
A particularly strong performance in the City of London contributed to JLL securing the number one spot for Greater London (with an impressive 477,040 sq ft of office space transacted in the City in Q1 2024). Additionally, JLL achieved a strong outcome in the South West, having transacted 54,895 sq ft of space in the region, representing a 45% market share.
James Finnis, JLL’s Head of UK Agency, Lease Advisory & Rating said, “Securing the number one on EG’s leadership board for our strong performance across London and the South West is testament to the commitment of our teams setting the pace and paving the way for a promising year ahead.”
Jeremy Attfield, Head of City at JLL, said: “The City team enjoyed an impressive Q1 2024 – accounting for two of the three largest transactions across Central London. With 3.7m sq ft of space under offer and 12.5m sq ft of active demand across Central London at the start of Q2, there is continued momentum as occupiers focus on offices to reposition their brand and energise their staff.”
Chris Valentine, Head of Central London Office Agency at JLL added, “Our consistent presence within the top of the EG Radius leaderboards is a reflection of JLL’s strong market knowledge, extensive network, and unwavering commitment to our clients. Demand for new space remains strong and Q2 has already seen some significant transactions completed, such as Citadel at 2 Finsbury Avenue, and we expect to see further deals complete as the quarter progresses.”
Ian Wills, Head of South West Office Agency at JLL, commented, “We are pleased to claim a top spot in EG’s regional leaderboard for the first quarter of 2024. JLL’s consistent success in driving positive outcomes in the competitive market is a great reflection of our hardworking teams. We are particularly pleased with our exceptional results in the South West, which further underpins our stronghold in the region.”
