DENVER, CO – August 23, 2022 – Cardinal Group Companies (CGC), an industry leader in student, conventional, and affordable housing property management, today announces that Jacob Kosior has joined the company as Vice President of Centralized Services. In his role, Jacob will be responsible for building and implementing Cardinal’s centralization roadmap and sourcing strategic technology partners to support Cardinal’s centralization platform.

We love Jacob’s obsession with the resident experience and his agreement that centralization can enhance CX and provide a whole new way to customize the resident journey,” said Alex O’Brien, CEO of Cardinal Group.

Significant technology advances in the housing industry have provided the ability to offer centralized services, where companies like Cardinal can create seamless digital experiences for our residents. Centralized services allow onsite team members to prioritize and focus on providing meaningful residential experience in all Cardinal-owned and managed communities.

Cardinal’s long-term investment in its best resource – its team members – makes Cardinal well suited to capitalize on the efficiency gains of centralized services, while providing new, specialized opportunities for our people,” said Jacob Kosior, Vice President of Centralized Services, Cardinal Group Companies.
