SJC Ventures appoints Brett Warner as new chief financial officer

ATLANTA, Ga. — SJC Ventures, a premier Atlanta-based mixed-use, grocery-anchored retail and multi-family development firm, recently announced the hiring of Brett Warner as its new chief financial officer.

Warner brings more than 13 years of real estate and corporate finance experience spanning FP&A, capital markets, development finance and asset management. He joins SJC from Related Ross in West Palm Beach, Florida, where, as vice president of finance, he led financial planning and performance management across a $5 billion portfolio of multifamily, retail, office and mixed-use assets and served as a key advisor to ownership on corporate strategy. During his tenure, he also directed the finance workstream for Related Ross' spinoff from Related Companies.

Over nearly a decade at Related Companies, Warner held progressively senior finance roles across the firm's national development platform, ultimately serving as director of finance for the Southeast. He built the corporate budgeting, forecasting and capital-planning infrastructure that scaled with the platform's rapid, multi-year growth, stood up finance and property management functions for new business lines, and underwrote major ground-up development projects. His earlier tenure included helping establish the financial reporting infrastructure for Hudson Yards, the $25 billion, 28-acre mixed-use development on Manhattan's West Side.

As CFO, Warner will oversee SJC Ventures' finance and accounting operations and help shape the firm's financial strategy through its next phase of growth. His focus includes deepening the company's capital relationships, strengthening its financial planning and reporting infrastructure, and building the systems needed to support an expanding development pipeline. Working alongside the firm's principals, he will help SJC capitalize on strong demand for grocery-anchored retail and adjacent multifamily by driving disciplined, profitable growth across its portfolio.

"We're excited to welcome Brett to the SJC Ventures leadership team,” said Fain Hicks, principal at SJC Ventures. “His depth of experience with large-scale, complex development projects and proven financial expertise will enhance our ability to continue to create significant value for our partners, stakeholders and the communities we serve.

Warner earned bachelor's degrees in finance and economics from the University of Iowa, graduating with high distinction.
