New York City – SJP Properties announced today that it has deepened its leadership team with the promotion and hiring of two key professionals within its property management platform: Barbara Quintana has been promoted to Director of Property Management, and Mary Tanzer has been hired as General Manager. Quintana and Tanzer will bring their combined experience of over forty years to oversee all property management operations, and tenant and vendor relations for SJP’s best-in-class office portfolio.
“The highest level of concierge service in both property management and asset management has been the foundation of SJP’s success creating a world-class environment for every tenant within our portfolio, and we could not have found a more competent professional to oversee this critical function of our organization than Barbara,” said Steve Pozycki, Founder and CEO of SJP Properties. “Furthermore, Barbara’s promotion created the opportunity to bring another talented professional onto our team — we’re proud to have selected Mary, who is incredibly accomplished in her own right, and who we’re confident will continue our proud legacy of delivering a superior tenant experience throughout our New York City assets.”
With more than 30 years of experience, Quintana previously served as the General Manager for SJP’s New York property management teams. In her new role as Director of Property Management, Quintana will lead the management teams for SJP’s commercial assets in both New York and New Jersey, including spearheading all property management operations, financial performance, and reporting. Prior to joining SJP, Quintana oversaw asset and facility management for Class A properties in Chicago and New York on behalf of such clients as JP Morgan Chase, N.A., Fosun Property Holdings, Travelers Insurance Company, Banc One Corporation, and the First National Bank of Chicago.
Quintana is a graduate of Harvard University with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. She is an active member of BOMA New York, a former Board member of BOMA Chicago and co-chair of that organization’s Mentorship Committee. Quintana also served on the board of Mujeres Latinas en Acción, a bilingual/bicultural not-for-profit organization that advocates for and offers services to the Latino community in Chicago. Additionally, she was recognized as a Business Leader of Color by Chicago United and received an award for Mentorship Excellence in 2019 from the Committee for Hispanic Children and Families.
“As a leader in the industry, SJP represents the best in property development and concierge management services, and I was honored to accept this new role,” said Quintana. “I look forward to shaping and executing the company’s strategy for excellence across New York and New Jersey.”
Tanzer brings more than a decade of experience to her position as General Manager, where she works closely with each property management team on staffing, building relationships, and general operations across SJP’s New York portfolio, including 11 Times Square, where SJP’s flagship office is located. Tanzer previously worked with Tishman Speyer as Senior Manager of Facilities/Operations, supporting NBCUniversal at 30 Rockefeller Center and NBCU/CNBC in Englewood Cliffs, N.J. Throughout her career, Tanzer has overseen property management at several Class A properties, including Hearst Tower and 200 Park Avenue, and also worked as Director of Property Management for Savitt Partners. She earned her bachelor’s degree in English from William Paterson University.
“Having worked at several remarkable buildings in Manhattan, I am extremely proud to join the SJP team and apply my experience to upholding its reputation as a partner to corporate tenants across New York,” said Tanzer.
