Company Story:
I'm working with an established commercial real estate owner with a strong portfolio of directly owned assets.

A critical part of this role is commercial lease administration. You need to be comfortable reading and interpreting commercial leases, identifying key dates, financial obligations, operating provisions, and other requirements, then translating those details into accurate administrative action.

- Support property and operations leadership with reporting, correspondence, projects, and portfolio priorities
- Monitor outstanding items and deadlines, following up with internal teams, tenants, and vendors as required
- Help improve administrative processes and maintain consistency across the commercial portfolio
What You Bring to the Table:
- 5+ years of commercial property administration, lease administration, or related commercial real estate experience
- Strong ability to read, understand, and interpret commercial lease agreements
- Previous experience providing leadership, mentorship, or workflow coordination to an administrative team
- Excellent organization and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities
- Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work effectively with a range of personalities
- Professional written and verbal communication skills
- Strong Microsoft Office skills and experience with property management or accounting systems
- A proactive work style with strong follow-through and ownership of administrative processes
What's in It for You:
- Full-time, permanent opportunity with an established commercial property owner
