Cushman & Wakefield (NYSE: CWK) has been appointed by Woodside Energy to deliver integrated real estate solutions across the energy company’s international office portfolio.
The five-year Global Outline Agreement spans 14 countries across Asia Pacific (APAC), Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA), Latin America (LATAM) and North America (NOAM).
The appointment represents a significant milestone for Cushman & Wakefield, marking its first Global Occupier Services (GOS) client headquartered in Perth, Western Australia.
The agreement underscores the firm’s ability to manage complex, cross-regional portfolios for multinational corporations, while reinforcing its ongoing global growth trajectory.
Under the arrangement, Cushman & Wakefield will provide Integrated Facilities Management (IFM), Integrated Portfolio Management (IPM), and Project & Development Services (PDS), aligning resources across multiple geographies to deliver cost-efficient, consistent, and scalable real estate outcomes.
The partnership builds on an established relationship. In 2018, Cushman & Wakefield was awarded a contract with Woodside Energy for the delivery of IFM services in Perth.
That mandate was later expanded in 2022 to include services for Woodside’s Houston office.
The new global agreement is seen as both an expansion and a deepening of the collaboration between the two companies.
Cameron Ahrens, Head of Global Occupier Services, APAC, Cushman & Wakefield, said: “We are delighted to strengthen our long-standing relationship with Woodside Energy and thank them for entrusting us to support their evolving global real estate needs.
“This appointment reflects our commitment to consistent service delivery, operational excellence, and integrated solutions that unlock long-term value.
“Cushman & Wakefield’s teams are aligned globally to deliver high-quality outcomes to Woodside Energy, supported by our global platform, deep technical expertise and collaborative approach.”
The expansion is strategically important for Cushman & Wakefield, not only because Woodside Energy is one of Australia’s leading energy companies, but also because it reflects growing demand for integrated workplace management across international operations.
By securing its first GOS client headquartered in Perth, the firm is broadening its service base in the region while reinforcing its global portfolio management credentials.
For Woodside, the move ensures continuity and quality in real estate services across its locations worldwide.
As energy companies increasingly focus on efficiency, sustainability, and employee experience within their workspaces, the partnership is expected to help optimise how Woodside manages its offices on a global scale.
With businesses navigating evolving workplace needs amid shifting energy markets, real estate strategies that balance cost control, flexibility, and innovation are becoming more crucial to long-term performance.
The success of Cushman & Wakefield’s local and regional engagements with Woodside Energy laid the groundwork for this expanded mandate.
