“I’m honored to be elected as the Southeast Regional Director for SIOR,” said Pope. “Since joining the organization nearly 10 years ago, I’ve been presented with excellent opportunities and made long-lasting connections with some of the top professionals in the industry. SIOR has been an essential component of my career and it’s a privilege to be able to give back as I serve as regional director for the next two years.”

Focused on serving clients by providing real estate solutions to supply chain challenges, Pope has represented clients in both the acquisition and disposition of warehouse and distribution, manufacturing and office properties throughout the United States, and has consulted on overseas projects for Fortune 500 clients.

In addition to his daily work at the firm, Pope also served on the Board of Directors and was President of the SIOR Georgia Chapter, as well as serving on the board of the Atlanta Board of Commercial Realtors. He previously served as Chair of the SIOR Global Industrial Practice Group. Prior to joining JLL, Pope was a Managing Director and Principal of NAI Brannen Goddard where he worked as a Southeastern Representative on the Major Markets Logistics team and on the East Coast Industrial Group. In 2019 and 2021, he was honored as the No. 1 and No. 5 industrial broker in Atlanta by the Atlanta Board of Commercial Realtors in the Agency Category. Additionally, he received the Silver Phoenix Award for 25 consecutive years of achieving Million Dollar Club status.
