In addition, he will work closely with other teams in the JLL network, including Miebach – the world’s largest supply chain focused consulting firm - and the broader JLL EMEA industrial and logistics business.

Andrew Peirson, Managing Director for Czech Republic at JLL, said: “Thanks to Robert’s extensive experience in the logistics sector, we will further strengthen our diverse and highly capable industrial agency business in the Czech Republic.

His working history in the field of logistics is exactly the skills we need to continue building on the reputation of a diverse team of people from different backgrounds – not just real estate. I'm excited about him joining our team”.
Robert Sgariboldi added: “From the point of a competitor and previous client, the JLL brand has always represented quality, a professional approach and a strong platform to integrate my experience in supply chain with one of the largest global platforms in real estate. I look forward to working with a passionate and energetic team based in Prague and across EMEA”.
