The ideal candidate will bring a balance of tactical execution and strategic foresight, capable of translating client goals into actionable development plans while managing complex stakeholder environments. This is an ideal opportunity for a self-directed professional with strong real estate and development experience who thrives in a dynamic, fast-paced setting.

Location: We are open to hiring for remote work from any location in the US.

Preferred Experience:

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Architecture, Urban Planning, or related degree 
  • Professional experience coordinating commercial real estate development projects, project management, or related field. Experience with multi-site national retail or restaurant programs strongly preferred
  • Experience testifying before planning commissions, zoning boards, or similar public hearings
  • Experience working on retail, restaurant, or petroleum site development
  • Commercial real estate brokerage experience
  • Familiarity with Build to Suit and Reverse Build to Suit models
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, Adobe Professional, and project tracking tools (e.g., Smartsheet, Lucernex, Accruent)

What matters to our associates matters to us. Benefits and professional growth are at the top of the list. We provide a comprehensive benefits package that encourages our associates to live healthy lifestyles, reach financial goals, and cope with the challenges of life at work and home. We like to work hard and have fun!
