• Coordinate with stakeholders across functions to drive spend and transaction approvals; support document execution for all transaction types 

• Manage lease administration — track terminations, renewals, rent commencements, and portfolio-wide lease/property data; provide monthly reporting 

• Maintain and improve financial templates/tools and KPI data used across the broader transaction team, supporting onboarding and identifying process efficiencies

• Proactively identify process inefficiencies, formulate and execute on implementation plans, followed by tracking and demonstrating results

Every day is different, and in all these activities, we’d encourage you to show your ingenuity — with deep respect for the client’s partners and colleagues at every turn, and an unwavering focus on the end user of the client’s products in every decision you make.
