Susan Reynolds has been promoted to president and principal broker for The Janet Jones Co. in Little Rock.
Reynolds is the daughter of founder Janet Jones, who will continue to serve as CEO. Reynolds is just the second president in the firm’s 46-year history.
Founded in 1980, the Little Rock residential real estate firm now has 40 employees with sales last year totaling nearly $300 million.
“I built this company with vision and heart. Now I have the privilege of watching my daughter lead it forward,” Jones said. “The greatest milestone in leadership is not stepping away but passing the work you love to someone you trust completely. I will remain the steward of what we built, while proudly watching the next generation carry it even further.”
Reynolds has been with the company for more than 25 years, working as one of the top agents and previously holding the title of vice president. She has also served on several community boards, including the Little Rock Regional Chamber Board, the Junior League of Little Rock Executive Board, the Women & Children First Board and the Arkansas Children’s Auxiliary Board.
The company also announced that it has promoted Bob Bushmiaer to vice president. Bushmiaer will continue as an executive broker and sales associate in his new role. Executive Broker Brock Whisenhunt Sr. will continue as sales manager and be joined in his role by Catherine Langley, who is now assistant sales manager and associate broker.
“It’s been the greatest privilege of my life to work alongside my mother for my entire adult life in such a special business and with the most amazing co-workers,” Reynolds said. “I am deeply grateful for the foundation my mother created, and I am honored to carry that legacy forward, preserving the values she instilled while guiding our family business into its next chapter.”
