Avison Young promotes Brennan Yadlowski to managing director for Calgary
Avison Young, a commercial real estate services firm, has promoted Brennan Yadlowski to managing director (MD) of its Calgary office, effective January 1, 2024.
Yadlowski succeeds Todd Throndson, who has spent the last 26 years as principal and MD in the firm’s Edmonton and Calgary offices. Throndson will stay on in a role focusing on mentoring and coaching Avison Young’s emerging talent.
“While I could not be happier to hand the reigns over to Brennan and am fully confident in his future success, I am looking forward to offering something different to AY and our Calgary office,” Throndson said. “I expect to focus more on mentoring and coaching our up-and-coming talent and helping where I can to add value.”
Yadlowski has been at Avison Young since 2018, joining the firm's Edmonton location as an associate in the capital markets and mortgage practices. He later moved to Calgary to lead the mortgage team, where he currently serves as associate vice president.
Yadlowski specializes in assisting owners, developers, and operators with efficiently accessing capital from the institutional/private investor, equity, and private wealth markets. He has expertise in underwriting, negotiation, advisory, and financial analysis.
Before joining Avison Young, Yadlowski was a professional hockey player, serving as assistant captain of the Guildford Flames in the UK. He was also previously captain of the University of Alberta Golden Bears and assistant captain of the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
Yadlowski has a bachelor’s degree in finance from the University of Alberta.
“Brennan was quickly identified as a leader with incredible potential. He’s a dynamic team player, a champion of the use of technology in real estate, and a strategic, long-term thinker,” said Mark Fieder, principal and president of Avison Young Canada. “He is someone who will galvanize the entire team in Calgary – new professionals, seasoned Principals, brokerage teams and non-brokerage service lines – to deliver results together.”
Avison Young has 5,000+ employees across offices in North America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The firm provides investment sales, leasing, management, financing, and advisory services to clients in the office, retail, industrial, multi-family, and hospitality sectors.
Avison Young earlier this year promoted Ted Davis to COO for Canada.
