Montréal, QC – Avison Young is making management changes to its Montréal team to further accelerate business growth in the Québec market, appointing Patrick Laurin as Managing Director.

Patrick will leverage his expertise in operational oversight, supporting the Montréal team in delivering exceptional client services. He will also continue to lead the Occupier Services group in Montréal and remain involved on a national basis to help grow the business across Canada.

“Patrick is a natural leader with a track record of working collaboratively to drive business across all service lines to produce positive outcomes,” said Mark Fieder, Principal and President, Avison Young Canada. “I could not be happier for Patrick as he steps into this new stage in his career with Avison Young.”

Jean Laurin, as President of Avison Young Québec, will devote his time to business development, client-focused activities and strategic growth initiatives. His mandate will include developing partnerships with key stakeholders and identifying opportunities to introduce new service lines in Québec – as an important part of our overall Canadian growth plan.

Both Jean and Patrick are available for media opportunities, going forward.
