Beginning of September this year, the Management Board at Avison Young's Polish branch underwent a change, with Monika Bronicka, Director, Head of Valuation and Advisory, Business Development, becoming the Member of the Board.

Monika is a highly respected appraiser and manager with nearly 20 years of experience in commercial property valuation and advisory services in Poland, acquired through her work with international corporations. Her career also includes serving as an expert witness, with experience in arbitration at the International Dispute Resolution Centre in London, as well as working as a lecturer at the Krakow Business School at the University of Economics in Krakow. Many young people starting out in the industry have gained professional experience under her surveillance.

Not only she is a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) but is also one of the few valuers in Poland accredited by HypZert MLV, enabling her to conduct mortgage valuations for German banks financing investments in the country.

Monika joined Avison Young in 2021 to launch and develop the Valuation and Advisory department. Her leadership quickly proved successful, with her team achieving its budget goals already in the first full year of operation - 2022. Over the past three years, her team has strengthened its market position and nearly tripled in size. In her new role as a Board Member Monika will be responsible for the operation and development of three departments: Valuation and Advisory, Research and Data Management, Technical Advisory and Project Management. She will also assist the President of the Board, Michał Ćwikliński in driving the overall growth of Avison Young in Poland.

“I am incredibly proud of Monika, who has truly thrived at Avison Young, and I am delighted she has accepted this promotion within our firm. - says Michał Ćwikliński, Principal, Managing Director for the EMEA Region and President of the Board at Avison Young in Poland, commenting on the recent changes. - Since the beginning of our cooperation Monika has shown remarkable dedication and ambition, positively influencing not only her team but also the entire company. She is an outstanding professional and a remarkable person, and I am confident in sharing the responsibilities of Avison Young’s further development in Poland with her.”
