Atlanta-based multifamily landlord Cortland appointed Juan Bueno to the newly created position of president of operations.  

Bueno will oversee a variety of critical teams in his new role, including Operations and Facilities, Analytics, Revenue, Talent, Marketing, Communications and Resident Experience. Together, Bueno and these groups will seek to create a “modernized operations and service delivery platform,” Cortland said. 

Most recently, Bueno served as U.S. president for the Canadian real estate-services firm Avison Young, where he developed the company’s five-year strategic growth plan. Before that, he was vice president of sales for Home Depot Pro and spent more than 15 years in management consulting, including more than a decade with McKinsey & Company. 

“I am thrilled to welcome Juan to lead the next step in Cortland’s evolution and accelerate our commitment to providing a level of hospitality that creates an unrivaled living experience,” Cortland CEO Steven DeFrancis said in a press release. “Given his significant experience in the consumer and real estate industries, we look forward to seeing the positive impact Juan will have on our company and our residents.”
