Reporting to Michael Ignatiadis, Head of Supply Chain and Logistics Solutions, Asia Pacific, Seaky will be based out of Shanghai and will lead the team of Supply Chain and Logistics Consulting Services in Greater China.

In his new role, Seaky will focus on working with both Chinese and multinational companies in Greater China, and providing them with services such as supply chain strategization, network optimization, warehouse design and improvement, logistics outsource decision-making and project bidding. As a core member of the Asia Pacific Supply Chain and Logistics Solutions team, Seaky will collaborate internationally with teams based in other countries to provide solutions for Chinese companies looking to grow outside of China or Asia, as well as for companies wishing to enter the China market or further expand their business in China.

“We are very pleased that Seaky has joined us at JLL,” says Michael Ignatiadis. “His rich experience in supply chain solutions will bolster our ability to provide effective solutions in Greater China.

The pandemic has exposed shortcomings in the stability, flexibility and elasticity of the supply chains of many companies – an increasing number of which have begun to re-examine their supply chains and actively seek transformative change and improvement. I look forward to working alongside our Real Estate Transaction and Project Management teams to support clients throughout their entire industrial asset life cycle through formulating unique value propositions, which will eventually enhance their market competitiveness.”
