18 maja 2026

Global real estate services firm Cushman & Wakefield continues to expand its Retail Agency team, prioritising deep market expertise and hands-on experience gained from working with leading retail brands. The firm’s leasing team has been bolstered by the appointment of Aleksandra Walaszek and Tomasz Nowakowski as Retail Leasing Managers. Their arrival significantly strengthens Cushman & Wakefield’s capabilities in delivering advisory services to both landlords and tenants.

The current dynamics and maturity of the retail sector require advisers to possess not only retail market expertise but, more importantly, an in-depth understanding of retailers’ internal processes. By bringing in experts with strong operational backgrounds, Cushman & Wakefield is responding to the growing demand from brands for portfolio optimisation and expansion strategies.

Aleksandra and Tomasz bring a wealth of expertise to our team. The addition of professionals who have contributed to the success of leading retailers such as LPP and Stokrotka allows us to approach the market from a broader perspective. Their track record in negotiating commercial terms and managing property portfolios aligns perfectly with our strategy of delivering services tailored to the real needs of retail brands. The combination of advisory excellence and practical market experience our new managers bring will further enhance the quality of service we provide to our clients,”

says Michał Masztakowski, Head of Retail Agency, Cushman & Wakefield.

Aleksandra Walaszek has more than 10 years of experience in the retail sector. Prior to joining Cushman & Wakefield, she spent over two years at LPP Group as Leasing Manager, where she drove the rapid expansion of Sinsay stores across Poland. Before that, she worked for Kazar Group, spending the last five years overseeing the retailer’s expansion and optimisation processes. Aleksandra holds an engineering degree in Physics from the Warsaw University of Technology and a Master’s degree in Property Management from the Warsaw School of Economics. She has also completed post-graduate studies in property valuation and management at Lazarski University.

Tomasz Nowakowski is an expert with nearly 20 years of experience in strategic leasing and retail property transaction management. Most recently, he served as Commercialisation Director at Stokrotka, after holding several managerial roles overseeing property transactions and asset management. He also gained experience at Elpro Development and Emperia Holding, where he was responsible for leasing and property portfolio management. Tomasz holds a Master’s degree in Law from the Catholic University of Lublin and has completed post-graduate studies in property management.

The expansion of the leasing team is part of Cushman & Wakefield’s broader strategy to provide comprehensive support to the retail sector.
