Attracting and Retaining the Best Talent

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain talented, productive and skilled employees to transact with our clients in a challenging and regulated environment that is experiencing ever-increasing competition for talent. We are investing in fostering an inclusive and incentivized work environment where our people can deliver their best work every day. In 2021 and in 2024, we were named by GlobeSt.com as one of commercial real estate’s “Best Places to Work.” Newmark was ranked #1 on LinkedIn’s 2022 “Top Companies in Real Estate” list, which ranks the top 25 companies at which to grow a career in the industry

Vendor Code of Conduct

Newmark conducts its business activities with integrity and in full compliance with the laws and regulations that govern those activities and with consideration of Newmark’s values, ethical business practices and professional expectations. Newmark expects the same from the vendors it engages, whether directly or on behalf of its clients.

Our Vendor Code of Conduct contains the standards of business practices and regulatory compliance that are expected of vendors and their agents, employees and subcontractors and applies to all interactions between vendors and Newmark or its clients and between vendors and any third party which may perform services on behalf of Newmark or its clients. It addresses legal and ethical standards, human rights and fair labor practices, health and safety, the environment, and data protection.

Community Investment

Never has our commitment to our people and others been so evident as in our corporate giving and charitable work. Newmark actively encourages our producers, managers and other employees to support the communities in which we live and operate through philanthropy and volunteerism, and we proudly support our clients in their charitable efforts.

Paid Time Off Volunteer Program

As part of these values in action, we offer a Volunteer Time Off program to support individual employee volunteerism in the communities in which they work and live. All full and part-time regular employees are eligible to utilize one paid workday (whole day or two half-days) each calendar year to volunteer with bona fide charitable organizations of their choice.

Since then, the fund continues to support families impacted by disasters and other charities. The Company currently matches 100% of individual Newmark employee donations to the Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund made in September of each year, up to $5,000 per individual employee.
