Nicole Jones, the senior vice president of marketing at Veris Residential, brings more than 20 years of real estate marketing and branding experience to the table, primarily focused on multifamily communities. She currently oversees marketing for Veris Residential’s entire multifamily, office and retail portfolio.
What initially drew Jones to the Veris Residential brand is the pillars the company stands upon: its ESG, DEI and philanthropic initiatives. It’s not just about what the larger company is doing to contribute towards a better future, it’s about how its properties and residents are included in its mission.
In this podcast, you’ll listen to Jones and Multi-Housing News Associate Editor Jordana Rothberg discuss how Veris Residential’s pillars are brought to life and the way Jones incorporates these initiatives into an authentic marketing strategy.
