Newmark is pleased to announce Phil Brodkin’s appointment as Executive Vice President, Head of Industrial and Logistics Services. Phil will be responsible for the firm’s industrial business’ strategic direction, further broadening the platform capabilities and infrastructure, recruiting top talent and enhancing client service.
Phil’s appointment aligns with Newmark’s commitment to further grow its Industrial and Logistics platform. In this role, he will report to Newmark’s Chief Revenue Officer, Lou Alvarado.

Phil will continue his role as Market Leader for the Los Angeles region, where he led a 31% increase in revenue in a matter of three years, driving value and vision to empower both the company and clients.
“I’m thrilled to expand my role to lead Newmark’s Industrial Group, to connect strategy, stabilization, occupancy and monetization for companies and institutions,” commented Brodkin. “Working with all of Newmark’s great professionals across the country, we will concentrate efforts alongside our clients to adapt and redefine the “landscape” - on how research and development, manufacturing, distribution, retail and e-commerce operations intersect with physical locations.”
Prior to joining Newmark in 2017, Phil served as a director of real estate at Regus, the world’s largest flexible workplace provider. In this position, he was responsible for oversight of the firm’s strategic growth throughout the western U.S. He handled the expansion of approximately 1.5 million square feet of space for new company locations, managing the real estate for its portfolio.
