Personnel note: Steve Bovo joining Corcoran Partners
Is Steve Bovo heading to the White House?

'We look forward to having the Mayor’s invaluable knowledge and expertise.'

Hialeah Mayor Steve Bovo is expanding his résumé in a big way with a new role at Corcoran Partners.

Bovo first disclosed the upcoming move during a Spanish-language interview with Univision Miami. The lobbying firm then confirmed the addition of Bovo in the near future via a statement on its website.

“Corcoran Partners is excited and honored to welcome Mayor Steve Bovo to our firm family. Mayor Bovo‘s unwavering commitment and tireless dedication to public service is beyond reproach. His public service has positively impacted the citizens of Hialeah and our entire state for over two decades,” the firm said in a statement.

“We look forward to having the Mayor’s invaluable knowledge and expertise to share with and advocate for our diverse and dynamic client base. Please join us in welcoming Mayor Bovo to the Corcoran Partners family!”

The move was foreshadowed a bit last month when Bovo’s former Deputy Chief of Staff, Carlos San Jose, joined Corcoran Partners as Deputy General Counsel.

Bovo became Hialeah’s Mayor in 2021, securing nearly 60% of the vote in a five-person race. That came after Bovo, a former Miami-Dade County Commissioner, lost a race for Mayor of Miami-Dade County in 2020 after qualifying for a runoff.

He will take on the position with Corcoran after departing from the Hialeah Mayor’s Office in the coming weeks. Bovo did not discuss what that new position will be.

Corcoran Partners has five offices in Florida — in Tallahassee, Tampa, St. Petersburg, Miami, and a brand-new office on the Space Coast — and an office in Washington, D.C.
