CHICAGO, Nov. 10, 2025 – JLL U.S. Property Management today announced the appointment of Paul Chase as President of JLL Lifestyle Property Management, marking a strategic evolution from the traditional Retail Property Management division.

Chase has driven innovation in the retail and shopping center industry for nearly 30 years and has played an instrumental role in shaping JLL’s retail leasing and mixed-use business nationwide. His vision for the U.S. Lifestyle Property Management business integrates JLL’s proven Mixed-Use (The Mixx) expertise with retail management, creating unparalleled depth across property types. Chase recognizes that today’s most successful properties blend retail, residential, office, hospitality and entertainment to create vibrant, destination experiences. The team’s new vision ensures every property – regardless of use type – benefits from JLL’s extensive experiential real estate knowledge.

"We are pleased to announce Paul's appointment to lead our newly focused U.S. Lifestyle Property Management business," said Mark Zettl, President of Property Management, JLL. "Paul is a proven innovator and industry visionary who brings forward-thinking leadership to our organization. We are certain that his ability to anticipate market trends and drive transformational change will reshape our U.S. retail property management operations, positioning us ahead of the curve as the industry evolves."

This new direction aligns JLL’s comprehensive expertise and resources to provide superior value in the rapidly expanding mixed-use sector, which is transforming how communities develop and investors approach real estate opportunities.

“The future of property management lies in understanding that real estate is fundamentally about human connection and community building,” said Chase. “My focus is leading our team to anticipate what tenants and consumers will need next – not just managing what exists today. We’re creating a new standard where every touchpoint delivers meaningful experiences that keep people coming back. This means thinking like hospitality professionals, acting like community curators, and operating with the precision our institutional clients expect. Our Lifestyle Property Management team will set the benchmark for how mixed-use properties should perform, ensuring our clients see measurable results in occupancy, tenant satisfaction, and long-term asset value.”

Prior to Chase’s new role, he was a Managing Director for JLL’s Retail Property Management’s national agency leasing team. His career progression also included roles as an asset manager and team leader within various leasing divisions, experience that enabled him to achieve huge success in tripling the leasing business by creating innovative new approaches within the Property Management business.
