Meryl Exley is a visionary leader at Centinel Public Partnerships, where she serves as EVP of Marketing & Public Affairs. Exley recently orchestrated one of the most consequential brand transitions in the military housing sector, rebranding Lendlease’s U.S. military housing and lodging portfolios into the new Centinel brand on a compressed timeline. This complex transformation involved 32,000 homes and 12,000 hotel rooms across 59 military installations. Her strategic launch generated over 562,000 media impressions and 49 earned media placements, establishing Centinel as an authentic and credible brand from day one. Exley also oversees the Centinel Community Fund, strengthening partnerships with nonprofits like K9s for Warriors and Operation Shower. With 20 years of experience, she balances strategic ambition with operational discipline, ensuring that Centinel continues to deliver on its commitment to nearly 4 million service members and their families annually.
