Real-Estate Advisory Director

The role

You will lead the execution of real estate advisory mandates from start to finish. This is a hands-on role with responsibility for the full deal cycle, including origination, structuring, negotiation, and completion. You will work closely with Partners but have autonomy to manage mandates, shape strategy, and deliver outcomes.

Alongside delivery, you will play a key role in developing the Real Estate Advisory team, mentoring junior colleagues, and contributing to the growth and positioning of the practice. Business development is a core aspect - leveraging your network, identifying opportunities, and building long-term client relationships will be essential.
