[Company Description]
Real Estate Investment

[Responsibilities]
In the role of Asset Manager, you will have the chance to enhance your competencies and knowledge across various domains, including client servicing, financial analysis, and the dynamic data center asset category in the commercial real estate field. As part of the Portfolio Management Group, you will oversee tenant relationships at multiple properties where you will provide analytical insights to drive strategic initiatives and support business decisions. Your responsibilities will include formulating proposals, negotiating leases, and driving renewal and expansion opportunities.

You will promote collaboration with various teams across disciplines including finance, legal, operations, sustainability, engineering and sales to problem solve and maximize the return of your assigned portfolio of properties. Growth in this role with Portfolio Management Group includes assisting with the master planning process of new and existing data centers; it also entails working closely with our Design & Construction team throughout the lifecycle of our development projects while providing valuable insight and direction from a business perspective to meet tenant timelines and delivery schedules. The properties you will manage and projects you will oversee are highly visible and critical to the success of our portfolio. The role may also involve interaction with local municipalities and utility providers as the jurisdiction requires for various site-specific needs such as entitlement, property taxes, permits and bonds.

You will join a team that includes Directors, other Asset Managers, and Portfolio Analysts.

You will take a proactive approach with customer relationships, coordinating customer outreach well in advance of renewals, ensuring they are satisfied with our services and engaging with them to explore expansion and other opportunities. In addition, just as important, you will provide analytical expertise for the Acquisitions, Design & Construction, and Property Operations teams regarding market activity, leasing, redevelopment, capital improvements, and technical operations expenditures for these sites.

For development projects, you will represent the company as the primary stakeholder: prioritizing business goals, being a problem solver, and adding value to the development process by offering strategic input. You will also provide detailed financial reporting and forecasting for your portfolio of properties and assist with various special projects and other complex analyses.
