Emil Juresic’s name is not whispered in reverent tones throughout the halls of NGU Real Estate.
Instead, the inspirational CEO is comfortably referred as “boss man” by his team of dedicated NGU members which is a reflection of his innate ability to relate to everyone despite his fearless reputation.
Mr Juresic has never forgotten his past, using it as fuel to fire his future.
Escaping a childhood of Balkan war bloodshed, he arrived on Australian soil as a 16-year-old refugee with nothing but the shirt on his back and a steely determination to fight a fair battle for life.
He is one person who could justify giving up, yet the 45-year-old refuses to entertain the concept of quitting.
It’s been a well-worn path of resilience, starting with selling candles and cigarettes to buy food for his family’s survival.
The NGU Group CEO now leads not only NGU Real Estate, but also NGU Media, NGU Lawyers One Life Club and NGU Corp Luxury Developments.
